Parameter Default

Description

Link Status

Indicates if the port has a valid connection to an external

device.

Admin Status

Enabled

Allows you to disable a port due to abnormal behavior

(e.g., excessive collisions), and then re-enable it after

the problem has been resolved. You may also disable a

port for security reasons.

Auto Negotiate

Enabled

Enables or disables auto-negotiation for the switch to

find a optimum connection speed.

Default Type

10M-Half-Duplex

If auto-negotiation is disabled, the port will be set to the

indicated speed and duplex mode.

Current

Type Indicates the current speed and duplex mode.

Flow Control

Disabled

Used to enable or disable flow control. Flow control can

eliminate frame loss by “blocking” traffic from end

stations or segments connected directly to the switch

when its buffers fill. When enabled, back pressure is

used for half-duplex and IEEE 802.3x for full-duplex.

Note that flow control should not be used if a port is

connected to a hub.

Jack Type

SC or RJ-45

Shows the jack type for each port.
