Negotiation
Indicates whether autonegotiation is enabled or disabled.
Status
Indicates that the port is enabled.
Link
Status of the link to the network. The following alternatives are possible:
● up
The port has a valid link to the network, a link integrity signal is being received.
● down
The link is down, for example because the connected device is turned off.
NOTICE
With IE Switches X-200, that are not IRT-compliant, it is not possible to disable ports in
PROFINET mode!
If a port of such a device is disabled by Web Based Management, the disabled setting is
overwritten when a PROFINET configuration is downloaded. In PROFINET mode, all
ports of a non IRT-compliant IE Switch X-200 are automatically enabled.
Note
If an IE switch port operating in autonegotiation mode is connected to a partner device that is
not operating in autonegotiation mode, the partner device must be set permanently to half
duplex mode.
If an IE switch port is set permanently to full duplex, the connected partner device must also
be set to full duplex.
If the autonegotiation function is disabled, the MDI/MDI-X autocrossover function is also
inactive. This means it may be necessary to use a crossover cable.
