Indicates if the port has a valid connection to an
external device.

Speed Status

Shows the port speed (10M or 100M).

Flow Control
Status

Shows the flow control type in use. Flow control
can eliminate frame loss by "blocking" traffic from

Back pressure is used for half duplex and IEEE

should not be used if a port is connected to hub.
