NOTE
When configuring the Summit 200-48 switch, all ports specified as mirrored ports and mirroring port, or 
ACL ingress ports and egress port, must belong to the same port group. Port group 1 consists of ports 
1 through 24 and port 49; port group 2 consists of ports 25 through 48 and port 50.
Uplink Redundancy on the Summit 200-24fx and Summit 200-24fx-TAA Switch
Gigabit Ethernet uplink redundancy on the Summit 200-24fx and Summit 200-24fx-TAA switch follows 
these rules:
Only one interface on each port can be active at a time. For example, on port 25, with both the 
mini-GBIC and 1000BASE-T interfaces connected, only one interface can be activated. The other is 
inactive.
If only one interface is connected, the switch activates the connected interface.
The switch determines whether the port uses the fiber or copper connection based on the order in 
which the connectors are inserted into the switch. When the switch senses that a mini-GBIC and a 
copper connector are inserted, the switch enables the uplink redundancy feature. For example, if you 
first insert mini-GBICs into ports 25 and 26, and then connect copper ports 25 and 26, the switch 
assigns the copper ports as redundant ports.
To set up a redundant link on a port, connect the active fiber and 1000BASE-T links to both the RJ-45 
and mini-GBIC interfaces of port 49. The switch defaults to the fiber link. If the fiber link fails during 
operation, the switch automatically activates the redundant 1000BASE-T link.
Hardware determines when a link is lost and swaps the primary and redundant ports to maintain 
stability. After a failover occurs, the switch keeps or sticks with the current port assignment until there 
is another failure or a user changes the assignment using the CLI. To change the uplink failover 
assignment, use the following command:
configure ports <nnn> preferred-medium {copper} | {fiber} |[force]
The default preferred-medium is fiber. If you use the 
force
 option, it disables automatic failover. If you 
force the preferred-medium to fiber and the fiber link goes away, the copper link is not used, even if 
available.
Full-Duplex Support
The Summit 200 switches provide full-duplex support for all ports. Full-duplex allows frames to be 
transmitted and received simultaneously and, in effect, doubles the bandwidth available on a link. All 
10/100 Mbps ports on the Summit 200 switch autonegotiate for half- or full-duplex operation.
Summit 300 “e” Series Switches
The Summit 300 “e” series switches include the following switch models:
