Ethernet interface configuration
This chapter includes these sections:
•
Ethernet interface naming conventions
•
Configuring basic settings of an Ethernet interface
•
Displaying and maintaining an Ethernet interface
NOTE:
•
The term "switch" or "device" in this chapter refers to the switching engine on a WX3000E wireless
switch.
•
The WX3000E series comprises WX3024E and WX3010E wireless switches.
•
The port numbers in this chapter are for illustration only.
Ethernet interface naming conventions
The Ethernet interfaces on the WX3000E switching engines are named in the format of interface-type
A/B/C, where the following definitions apply:
•
A—1.
•
B—Represents a slot number on the switch, and its value is 0.
•
C—Represents the number of an interface.
Configuring basic settings of an Ethernet interface
Configuring Duplex Mode and Speed on an Ethernet Interface
You can set an Ethernet interface to operate in one of the following duplex modes:
•
Full-duplex mode (full): Interfaces operating in this mode can send and receive packets
simultaneously.
•
Half-duplex mode (half): Interfaces operating in this mode cannot send and receive simultaneously.
•
Auto-negotiation mode (auto): Interfaces operating in this mode negotiate a duplex mode with their
peers.
Similarly, you can set the speed of an Ethernet interface or enable it to automatically negotiate a speed
with its peer. For a 1000-Mbps Ethernet interface, you can also set speed options for auto negotiation.
The two ends can pick a speed only from the available options. For more information, see “
Setting speed options for auto negotiation on an Ethernet interface
.”
