Insight Managed 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet Smart Cloud Switch with 2 SFP Fiber Ports
The Green Ethernet Configuration page displays.
6. Select the Auto Power Down Mode Disable or Enable radio button.
By default, this mode is disabled. When a port link is down, the underlying physical layer
goes down for a short period and then checks for port link pulses again so that
autonegotiation remains possible. In this way, the switch saves power when no link
partner is present for the port.
7. Select the EEE Mode Disable or Enable radio button.
By default, this mode is disabled. Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) combines the MAC
with a family of physical layers that support operation in a low power mode. It is defined
by the IEEE 802.3az standard. Lower power mode enables both the send and receive
sides of the link to disable some functionality for power savings when lightly loaded.
Transition to low power mode does not change the link status. Frames in transit are not
dropped or corrupted in transition to and from low power mode. Transition time is
transparent to upper layer protocols and applications.
8. Click the Apply button.
Your settings are saved.
Configure Green Ethernet Interface Settings
You can configure per-port Green Ethernet settings.
 To configure the Green Ethernet interface settings:
1. Connect your computer to the same network as the switch.
You can use a WiFi or wired connection to connect your computer to the network, or
connect directly to a switch that is off-network using an Ethernet cable.
2. Launch a web browser.
3. In the address field of your web browser, enter the IP address of the switch.
If you do not know the IP address of the switch, see Access the Switch on page 11.
The login window opens.
4. Enter the switch’s password in the password field.
The default password is password. If you added the switch to a network on the Insight
app before and you did not yet change the password through the local browser interface,
enter your Insight network password.
The System Information page displays.
5. Select System > Management > Green Ethernet > Green Ethernet Interface
Configuration.
