result, all tagged and untagged packets are sent to the high
priority queue.
Media Type
Use this parameter to select the media type on an AT-8413 line
card. The Media Type parameter is only available when you
configure the Speed and Duplex parameter with one of the
following settings: 10_Half, 10_Full, 100_Half, 100_Full, or
1GB_Full.
Choose from the following settings to configure the Media Type
parameter:
❑ Type GBIC (for GBIC port) to indicate only the GBIC port is available
for connectivity.
❑ Type TP (for twisted pair) to indicate only the twisted pair port is
available for connectivity.
Status
You use this selection to enable or disable a port. When disabled,
a port does not receive or transmit frames.
For example, you may want to disable a port and prevent packets
from being forwarded if a problem occurs with the node or cable
connected to the port. Once the problem has been fixed, you can
enable the port again to resume normal operation. You can also
disable an unused port to secure it from unauthorized
connections.
To select a value, click the circle next it. Possible values are:
❑ Enabled - The port receives and forwards packets. This is the
default setting.
❑ Disabled - The port does not receive or forward packets.
Broadcast Filter
You use this selection to protect a port from a deluge of packets
caused by a broadcast storm. Enabling the broadcast filter
parameter on a port causes the port to discard all ingress
broadcast frames.
To select a value, click the circle next it. Possible values are:
❑ Enabled - The port discards all ingress broadcast frames.
❑ Disabled - The port accepts all ingress broadcast frames. This is the
default setting.
