NOTE
The MANAGEMENT port of the Switch supports the Auto MDI/MDI-X
functionality. If the Auto MDI/MDI-X functionality is enabled, either a
straight-through cable or a crossover cable can be connected,
regardless of the connection target.
NOTE
The Auto MDI/MDI-X functionality is enabled only when
auto-negotiation is specified for the MANAGEMENT port.
The factory default setting is auto-negotiation.
NOTE
When the Auto MDI/MDI-X functionality is disabled, the
MANAGEMENT port of the Switch is fixed to MDI.
Use a crossover cable if the port at the connection target is MDI, and
use a straight-through cable if the port is MDI-X.
For information about the pin configuration of the MANAGEMENT port
when the Auto MDI/MDI-X functionality is disabled, see the following
table.
