switch, or connected directly to the switch through an Ethernet cable.
2. Enter the IP address that is assigned to the switch.
A login window opens.

Manage individual port settings
For each individual port, you can set the port priority, set rate limits for incoming and
outgoing traffic, set the port speed (by default, the speed is set automatically), enable
flow control, and change the port name label.
Set rate limits for a port
You can limit the rate of incoming (ingress) traffic, outgoing (egress) traffic, or both on
a port to prevent the port (and the device that is attached to it) from taking up too much
bandwidth on the switch. Rate limiting simply means that the switch slows down all
traffic on a port so that traffic does not exceed the limit that you set for that port. If you
