Administration – LAN Interface
By default a radio terminals Ethernet interface is set to auto-negotiate the Ethernet type and rate. This page
indicates the Ethernet line-rate and whether it is active or not, and the status of the auto-negotiation. The
Ethernet port parameters for the remote end of the link are also shown, and are coloured RED if there is no
Ethernet cable connected at the remote end. Dual-port versions display a second box for Ethernet Interface 2.

Note: On Dual-port versions, there is an option to choose the Switch Mode as either “Normal” or “Bypass”.
Bypass mode forces frames on both Primary and Secondary ports to be sent over the air interface, and does
Bypass mode forces frames on both Primary and Secondary ports to be sent over the air interface, and does
not allow traffic to be switched between Primary and Secondary ports. The reason for choosing “Bypass
mode” is to allow unicast traffic to traverse across the radio link, even if there is no entry in the Switch
Address Lookup Engine. For TCP traffic where bidirectional frames will populate the Switch Address Lookup
Engine, it is possible to use “Normal” mode which will also allow switching between Primary and Secondary
