Parameter
Definition
Name
A user-assigned name for this port (possibly a
drop name or the name of the station or other
device connected to the port).
Category
Allows you to select either User Port or Service
Port.
• The
User Port is intended for use with
switch connections to end user nodes.
• The
Service Port is intended for use with
switch connections to servers or other
switches. The Service Port allows the switch
to generate both log messages and alarm
messages (traps). The User Port only generates
log messages, preventing your network
management station from being
overwhelmed by port up/down messages
that result from users turning workstations
on and off.
Speed Mode
Allows you to select the speed of the port
manually (to either 10 or 100 Mb/s).
If auto-
negotiation is enabled, this setting is
ignored.
Duplex Mode
Allows you set the port duplex mode (half- or
full-duplex).
If auto-negotiation is enabled,
this setting is ignored.
