Revision 1.0

Speed/Duplex:

Set the mode of speed and duplex. In speed, 10/100/1000Mbps baud

rate is available for Fast Ethernet TP port. The Fiber port is available in

speed 1000Mbps only. If the media is 1Gbps fiber, it is always 1000Mbps

and the duplex is full only. If the media is TP, the Speed/Duplex is

comprised of the combination of speed mode, 10/100/1000Mbps, and

duplex mode, full duplex and half duplex.

Flow Control:

There are three modes to choose in flow control, including Asymmetric,

Symmetric and Disable. If Symmetric flow control is set, both parties can

send PAUSE frame to the transmitting device(s) if the receiving port is

too busy to handle. If Asymmetric flow control is set, this will let the

receiving port not care the PAUSE frame from transmitting device(s).

This is one-way flow control. When it is set Disable, there will be no flow

control in the port. It drops the packet if too much to handle.

Default: Symmetric in full-duplex mode and Backpressure in half duplex.
