Port Configuration
57
1. User Port Setting - This sets the port to either Disabled or Enabled at 10G Full speed.
2. Net Port Setting - This sets the port to either Disabled or Enabled at 10G Full speed.
3. RMTF - Remote Fault (RMTF) allows an alarm to be transmitted to the link partner to indi-
cate loss of signal on receive. When a link loss is detected, the port stops transmitting
service traffic on the port and begins to transmit the Remote Fault signal so the con-
nected link knows the link is no longer operational.
a. A port that is receiving Remote Fault is treated as if the link is down for purposes
of Link Loss Forwarding and alarming. Even though the link is still up, only
Remote Fault is being received and service traffic is not flowing. Once the link
fault is corrected, Remote Fault transmission is automatically terminated and ser-
vice traffic flow will resume.
b. Use the Space Bar to cycle between User Port Enabled, Net Port Enabled, Both
Ports Enabled, and Disabled.
4. LLF - Enables or disables Link Loss Forwarding (LLF). Link Loss Forwarding allows the
9145E10G to signal attached equipment that a link has gone down by bringing down the
attached link.
a. If User->Network is selected, if the User Port link is down, the Network Port will
be disabled.
b. If Network->User is selected, the User Port will be disabled if the Network Port
goes down.
c. If Both Directions is selected, either port can bring down the other port. LLF can
only be active in one direction at a time, however. When the original link is
restored, the partner link is also restored.
d. Use the Space Bar to cycle between User->Network, Network->User, Both Direc-
tions, or Disabled.
5. Flow Control - Flow Control is not Supported in the 9145E10G.
6. Maximum Frame Size - Sets the maximum allowable Ethernet Frame size the
9145E10G will forward for both ports. Frames exceeding the Maximum Frame Size will
be counted as Oversize Packets and will be dropped. Frames destined for the 9145E10G
Manager are exempt from the limit. Enter the Maximum Frame Size between 1518 and
10000.
