TIP: When naming ports, you may want to name each port based on the device attached to the port. For example, if the port is attached to an e-mail server, you might name the port email1 server port 2. Relate the name of the port to the device that is attached to the port. 3.

It is recommended this option be enabled for ports configured for loop operation. Configuring the Product 3-3
