Figure 2-15. The Fast Ethernet Port ConÞguration Window
From this window you can manually set the operational mode of the port, or Ñ
for 100Base-TX interfaces Ñ set the port to auto negotiation so that the
appropriate operational mode can be determined automatically. The mode you
set will determine the speed of the port and whether it uses Full Duplex or
Standard Mode bridging.
The following information about the selected Fast Ethernet port is displayed:
NOTE
Auto-Negotiation is not supported by the FE-100FX Fast Ethernet port interface module.
If you launch the window for a port module slot which has no FE module installed, the
Port Type will display as Unknown, the Link State will display No Link, and the rest of
the Þelds will be blank and/or grayed out.
TIP
If you select the ConÞguration option available for a standard Ethernet or FDDI interface,
or for an Ethernet port on a second generation device, an entirely different window will
appear; see
ConÞguring Standard Ethernet and FDDI Ports , on page 2-31 , or
ConÞguring Ethernet Ports on Second Generation Devices , page 2-38 , for
information on conÞguring these ports.
