Configuring Interface Connections
You can use the Trunk Configuration or Port Configuration page to
enable/disable an interface, manually fix the speed and duplex
mode, set flow control, set auto-negotiation, and set the interface
capabilities to advertise.
Command Attributes
• Name – Allows you to label an interface. (Range: 1-64
characters)
• Admin – Allows you to manually disable an interface. You can
disable an interface due to abnormal behavior (e.g., excessive
collisions), and then reenable it after the problem has been
resolved. You may also disable an interface for security
reasons.
• Speed/Duplex – Allows manual selection of port speed and
duplex mode (i.e., with auto-negotiation disabled).
• Flow Control – Allows automatic or manual selection of flow
control.
• Autonegotiation/Port Capabilities – Allows auto-negotiation
to be enabled/disabled. Specifies the capabilities to be
advertised for a port during auto-negotiation. The following
capabilities are supported.

- 10full - Supports 10 Mbps full-duplex operation
- 100half - Supports 100 Mbps half-duplex operation
- 100full - Supports 100 Mbps full-duplex operation
