Switching set switch port 8-177
Software Release 2.7.3
C613-03098-00 REV A
received or sent on these ports is mirrored. If RX is specified, all traffic received
on these ports is mirrored. If TX is specified, all traffic transmitted is mirrored.
If both is specified, all traffic received and transmitted is mirrored. Traffic is
mirrored only when a mirror port is defined and mirroring is enabled. The
default is none.
The multicastmode parameter indicates how the switch handles traffic
addressed to a multicast group to which the specified port or list of ports
belongs. If A is specified, all traffic is flooded on all ports on the VLAN,
irrespective of whether the ports have joined the multicast group. The effect of
this option is to disable IGMP snooping without disabling IGMP. (See
Chapter 24, IP Multicasting). If B is specified, the traffic is sent to ports that
have joined the multicast group unless no ports have joined, in which case the
traffic is flooded on all ports on the VLAN. If C is specified, the traffic is sent to
ports that have joined the multicast group; if no ports have joined, the traffic is
discarded. This option allows the manager more control over who receives
traffic. The default is B.
The mode parameter applies to gigabit copper interfaces only. It forces the
interface to operate in master or slave mode by setting it to master or slave.
This is not typically required and should be used when the link partner does
not support autonegotiation of master/slave mode. The default is
autonegotiate.
The speed parameter specifies the configured line speed and duplex mode of
the port(s) (Table 8-34 on page 8-177.) If autonegotiate is specified, the port
autonegotiate the highest mutually possible line speed and duplex mode with
the link partner. If 10mfauto, 10mhauto, 100mfauto, 100mhauto, 1000mfauto,
or 1000mhauto is specified, the port autonegotiates with the link partner and
accepts operation at the specified speed and duplex mode. If 10mhalf, 10mfull,
100mhalf, 100mfull, 1000mhalf, or 1000mfull is specified, then
autonegotiation is disabled and the interface must operate at the specified
speed and duplex mode regardless of whether the link partner is capable of
working at that speed. When a port is included in a trunk group, it must
operate at the speed specified for the trunk group and in full duplex mode.
This speed is selected by autonegotiation with the link partner. If the port is
removed from the trunk group, the previously configured speed and duplex
mode are restored. The default is autonegotiate. Gigabit fibre ports can operate
at 1000Mbit/s full duplex, and gigabit copper ports on some units can only
operate at 1000MBit/s half or full duplex.
