You can manually configure the speed, duplex mode, and
flow control used on specific ports, or use autonegotiation
to detect the connection settings used by the attached
device. Use the full-duplex mode on ports whenever
possible to double the throughput of switch connections.
Flow control should also be enabled to control network
traffic during periods of congestion and prevent the loss
of packets when port buffer thresholds are exceeded. The
Switch supports flow control based on the IEEE 802.3x
standard.
The Port Settings screen displays the current connection
status, including the link status, speed duplex mode, and
flow control.
