Figure 2-1 Configuring Ports
Follow these steps to configure the port parameters.
1) Select the desired ports and set basic parameters for the ports.
Status Enable or disable the port. With this option enabled, the port forwards packets
normally. Otherwise, the port cannot work. By default, it is enabled.
Speed/Duplex Select the appropriate speed and duplex mode for the port. When Auto is
selected, the port automatically negotiates speed mode with the connected
device. It is recommended to select Auto if both ends of the link support auto-
negotiation.
Flow Control Select On or Off to enable or disable the Flow Control feature. When Flow Control
is enabled, when the switch gets overloaded, it will send a PAUSE frame to notify
the peer device to stop sending data for a specific period of time, thus avoiding
the packet loss caused by congestion.
2) Click Apply.
