Port Configuration

Port parameters can also be set from the LCD console
on the Switch 2000 TR front panel. If you have made
settings using the VT100 interface, those settings will
be reflected in the LCD console. Refer to Chapter 3
for more information on navigating the LCD console
and the LCD console map.

The screens are circular, meaning that you can access
them by scrolling either up or down. For the sake of
simplicity, these instructions use only the Down Arrow
to move through the screens.

You can set these parameters using the LCD console:
