The Safe@Office appliance also allows you to restrict each port to a specific link speed
and duplex setting and to configure its security scheme. For information on port-based
security, see Using Port-Based Security on page 413.
Viewing Port Statuses
You can view the status of the Safe@Office appliance's ports on the Ports page, including
each Ethernet connection's duplex state. This is useful if you need to check whether the
appliance's physical connections are working, and you can’t see the LEDs on front of the
appliance.
To view port statuses
1. Click Network in the main menu, and click the Ports tab.
