Function name:  
Port Status 
Function Description: 
Report the latest updated status of all ports in this switch. When any one of the 
ports in the switch changes its parameter displayed in the page, it will be 
automatically refreshed the port current status about every 5 seconds. 
Parameter Description: 
Port No:  
Display the port number. The number is 1 – 26. Both port 25 and 26 are 
optional modules. 
Media: 
Show the media type adopted in all ports. The Port 25 and Port 26 are 
optional modules, which support either fiber or UTP media with either 
Gigabit Ethernet (1000Mbps) or 10/100Mbps Fast Ethernet port. They 
may have different media types and speed. Especially, fiber port has 
comprehensive types of connector, distance, fiber mode and so on. The 
switch describes the module ports with the following page.  
Link: 
Show that if the link on the port is active or not. If the link is connected to 
a working-well device, the Link will show the link “Up”; otherwise, it will 
show “Down”. This is determined by the hardware on both devices of the 
connection.  
No default value. 
State:  
Show that the communication function of the port is “Enabled” or 
“Disabled”. When it is enabled, traffic can be transmitted and received via 
this port. When it is disabled, no traffic can be transferred through this 
port. Port State is configured by user.  
Default: Enabled. 
Auto Nego.: 
Show the exchange mode of Ethernet MAC. There are two modes 
supported in the switch. They are auto-negotiation mode “Enabled” and 
forced mode “Disabled”. When in “Enabled” mode, this function will 
automatically negotiate by hardware itself and exchange each other the 
capability of speed and duplex mode with other site which is linked, and 
comes out the best communication way. When in “Disabled” mode, both 
parties must have the same setting of speed and duplex, otherwise, both 
of them will not be linked. In this case, the link result is “Down”.  
Default: Enabled
