7. From the Auto Power Down Mode menu, select Enable or Disable.
By default, this mode is disabled for the port. When a port link is down, the underlying
physical layer goes down for a short period and then checks for port link pulses again so
that auto-negotiation remains possible. In this way, the switch saves power when no link
partner is present for the port.
8. From the
EEE mode menu, select Enable or Disable.
By default, this mode is disabled for the port. Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) combines
the MAC with a family of physical layers that support operation in a low power mode. It is
defined by the IEEE 802.3az standard. Lower power mode enables both the send and
receive sides of the link to disable some functionality for power savings when the load is
light.
T
ransition to low power mode does not change the link status. Frames in transit are
not dropped or corrupted in transition to and from low power mode. Transition time is
transparent to upper layer protocols and applications.
