6. Select the Auto Power Down Mode Disable or Enable radio button.

By default, this mode is disabled. When a port link is down, the underlying physical
layer goes down for a short period and then checks for port link pulses again so that
auto-negotiation remains possible. In this way, the switch saves power when no link
partner is present for the port.

7. Select the EEE Mode Disable or Enable radio button.

By default, this mode is disabled. Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) combines the MAC
with a family of physical layers that support operation in a low power mode. It is
defined by the IEEE 802.3az standard. Lower power mode enables both the send
and receive sides of the link to disable some functionality for power savings when
lightly loaded. Transition to low power mode does not change the link status. Frames
in transit are not dropped or corrupted in transition to and from low power mode.
Transition time is transparent to upper layer protocols and applications.
