Parameter Description

Type Shows port types as:

1000T - 1000BASE-T

1000SX - 1000BASE-SX

GBIC - 1000BASE-SX or 1000BASE-LX transceiver

Operational Shows if the port is functioning or not.

Link Indicates if the port has a valid connection to an

external device.

FlowControl

InUse

Shows the flow control type in use. Flow control

can eliminate frame loss by “blocking” traffic from

end stations connected directly to the switch. Back

pressure is used for half duplex and IEEE 802.3x

for full duplex.
