Parameter Default Description

Type Shows port type as:

10/100TX : 10Base-T / 100Base-TX

100FX : 100Base-FX

1000SX : 1000Base-SX

1000LX : 1000Base-LX

1000T : 1000Base-T

GBIC : GBIC transceiver

Admin ENABLED Allows you to disable a port due to abnormal

behavior (e.g., excessive collisions), and then re-

enable it after the problem has been resolved.

You may also disable a port for security reasons.

Flow Control DISABLED Used to enable or disable flow control. Flow

control can eliminate frame loss by “blocking”

traffic from end stations or segments connected

directly to the switch when its buffers fill. Back

pressure is used for half duplex and IEEE 802.3x

for full duplex. Note that flow control should not be

used if a port is connected to a hub.

Speed and Duplex AUTO Used to set the current port speed, duplex mode,

and auto-negotiation. (Auto-negotiation is not

available for 100Base-FX ports.)
