• Mode allows for specific negotiation settings on each interface. Exalt recommends setting these
interfaces to Auto Negotiation. However, there may be cases where connected equipment
performance can be improved by using a specific negotiation type.
• Alarm determines if the radio goes into alarm when the interface connection is disconnected or not
sensed. Enable alarms on in-use interfaces. Unused interfaces should have alarms disabled.
• Mute when enabled mutes the interface on link outage. This accommodates connected equipment
that requires loss of connection sense to enact network alarms. For example, Spanning Tree
Protocol can be enabled on loss of connection.
Notes:
• The Legacy Management setting is not recommended; it supports users running v1.1
firmware or lower so that upgrades do not cause network loops or other issues. If your
configuration has a mixture of both independent and mixed function interfaces, change
these settings to either In-Band or Out-of-band Management and make the appropriate
external network accommodations to support this new setting. Contact Exalt support for
details.
• The radio requires that a minimum of one interface have access to management (either by
setting to Mgmt or Traffic+Mgmt).
• If VLAN is enabled, VLAN IDs assigned to separate interfaces must match the topology
of the Function setting on this page. For example, any port with access to Management
must include the Management VLAN ID when configuring VLANs.
Note: The radio prohibits setting all interfaces to Mute, as this does not allow management
access to the radio. Do not mute the port with access to management.
