When disabled, you can manually configure the port speed and duplex 
mode.

If Auto Negotiation is disabled, choose the Port Speed (10/100 Mbps) and the 
duplex mode (Half- or Full-duplex).

Enable or disable the Green Ethernet Mode.

•

Green Ethernet Mode supports both auto-power-down mode and EEE 
(Energy Efficient Ethernet, IEEE 802.3az) mode. Green Ethernet Mode works 
only when the port has auto-negotiation enabled.

•

Auto-power-down mode reduces chip power when the signal from a link 
partner is not present. The WAP device automatically enters a low-power 
mode when energy on the line is lost, and it resumes normal operation when 
energy is detected.

•

EEE mode supports QUIET times during low link utilization, allowing both 
side of a link to disable portions of each PHY’s operating circuit and save 
power.

Click Save. The changes are saved to the Startup Configuration.

To configure the port settings: 

Select LAN > Port Settings.

The Port Settings Table includes the following status and configurations for all 5 
Interfaces (LAN0 to LAN4): 

•

Port Status—Shows the current port link status.

•

Port Speed—In review mode, it shows the current port speed. In edit mode, 
if Auto Negotiation is disabled, select a port speed such as 100 Mbps or 10 
Mbps. 1000 Mbps speed is only supported through Auto-Negotiation 
enabled).

•

Duplex Mode—In review mode, it shows the current port duplex mode. In 
edit mode, if Auto Negotiation is disabled, select either Half-Duplex or Full- 
Duplex.

•

Auto Negotiation—When enabled, the port negotiates with its link partner 
to set the fastest link speed and duplex mode available. When disabled, you 
can manually configure the Port Speed and Duplex Mode.
