Configuration of 1000BaseX ports

The following sections describe the configuration options in the Port
Configuration Menu for a 1000BaseX port. Since the 1000BaseX ports are
always in full duplex mode, the only configuration possible is enabling and
disabling the port.

To access the 1000BaseX port menu, type p in the Configuration menu, and
when you see the System Module Map, as shown in Figure 3-6, enter the
number of a module with 1000BaseX ports (such as module 2 in the map
shown in Figure 3-6). The Configuration menu for 1000BaseX ports appears,
as shown in Figure 3-9.
