FIGURE 127
Device Overrides - Interface Ethernet Port screen
Refer to the following to review port status and assess whether an override is warranted:
Name
Displays the physical port name reporting runtime data and statistics. Supported ports vary
depending on the supported models.
Type
Displays the physical port type. Copper is used on RJ45 Ethernet ports and Optical materials are
used on fiber optic gigabit Ethernet ports.
Description
Displays an administrator defined description for each listed access point port.
Admin Status
A green check mark defines the port as active and currently enabled with the profile. A red “X”
defines the port as currently disabled and not available for use. The interface status can be
modified with the port configuration as required.
Mode
Displays the profile’s current switching mode as either Access or Trunk (as defined within the
Ethernet Port Basic Configuration screen). If Access is selected, the listed port accepts packets
only from the native VLAN. Frames are forwarded out the port untagged with no 802.1Q header. All
frames received on the port are expected as untagged and mapped to the native VLAN. If set to
Trunk, the port allows packets from a list of VLANs added to the trunk. A port configured as Trunk
supports multiple 802.1Q tagged VLANs and one Native VLAN which can be tagged or untagged.
