152 Using the CMC Web Interface
Network Speed Set the network speed to 100 Mbps or 10 Mbps to match your
network environment.
NOTE: The Network Speed setting must match your network
configuration for effective network throughput. Setting the
Network Speed lower than the speed of your network
configuration increases bandwidth consumption and slows
network communication. Determine whether your network
supports the above network speeds and set it accordingly. If your
network configuration does not match any of these values, it is
recommended that you use Auto Negotiation or refer to your
network equipment manufacturer.
NOTE: To use 1000 Mb or 1 Gb speeds, select Auto Negotiation.
Duplex Mode Set the duplex mode to full or half to match your network
environment.
Implications: If Auto Negotiation is turned On for one device
but not the other, then the device using auto negotiation can
determine the network speed of the other device, but not the
duplex mode. In this case, duplex mode defaults to the half
duplex setting during auto negotiation. such a duplex
mismatch results in a slow network connection.
NOTE: The network speed and duplex mode settings are not
available if Auto Negotiation is set to On.
MTU Sets the size of the Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU), or
the largest packet that can be passed through the interface.
Configuration range: 576 – 1500.
Default: 1500.
NOTE: IPv6 requires a minimum MTU of 1280. If IPv6 is enabled,
and cfgNetTuningMtu is set to a lower value, the CMC uses an
MTU of 1280.
