Table 5 lists the possible settings of the DIP switches..
When setting the DIP switches, consider the following:
❑
Setting the Auto Neg DIP switch for the twisted pair port to ON or
OFF enables or disables Auto-Negotiation for the port. If you disable
Auto-Negotiation, be sure to set the DIP switches for the port’s speed
and duplex mode to match the speed and duplex mode of the end-node.
❑
If the end node connected to the twisted pair port is not using Auto-
Negotiation and has a fixed duplex mode of full-duplex, you must
disable Auto-Negotiation on the twisted pair port and set the speed
and duplex mode manually. Otherwise, a duplex mode mismatch will
result. For further information on this, refer to “Duplex Mode” on page
12.
❑
Disabling Auto-Negotiation on the twisted pair port also disables Auto
MDI/MDI-X and configures the port as MDI-X.
