node.

problem occurs with the node or cable connected to the port. You can
enable the port to resume normal operation after the problem has
been fixed. You can also disable an unused port to secure it from
unauthorized connections. The possible values are:
Ignore - Indicates the All setting does not apply to the Admin.
Status field. In other words, each port is set individually.

This is the default setting for a port.

frames.
