Configuring the Product d. Click a check box in the 10-100 km column to define extended distance buffering. (This column is not available on the Edge Switch 2/24.) A check mark in the box indicates extended distance buffering is enabled. You can enable extended distance for a port even if it is not an extended distance port. However, enabling extended distance buffering for a port disables the ability of the port to send broadcast traffic. When you choose this option, the port can support up to 60 buffer-to-buffer credits (BB_Credits) to handle link distances up to 100 km. This enables the port to process 2K frames from attached devices. If this option is not enabled, the port uses the BB_Credit value. Note: If a device is connected and logged in to the fabric when extended distance is enabled or disabled on the corresponding port, the HP product sends OLS for 5 milliseconds to force the device to log in again and obtain the new BB_Credit value set for the port. e. Choose from the drop-down list in the Type column to configure the port type. Available selections are: - G_Port - Generic port. - F_Port - Fabric port. - E_Port - Expansion port. - GX_Port - Generic mixed port. Use this selection to configure a port as a generic loop port (GL_Port). The port automatically negotiates any connection type (Edge Switch 2/24 only). - FX_Port - Fabric mixed port. Use this selection to configure a port as a fabric loop port (FL_Port). The port automatically negotiates F_Port and FL_Port connections only (Edge Switch 2/24 only). f. Choose from the drop-down list in the Speed column to configure the port transmission rate. Available selections are: - Negotiate - Auto-negotiate between 1.0625 and 2.125 gigabits per second (Gbps) operation. This is valid only on products that are capable of 2 Gbs operation. - 1 Gb/sec - 1.0625 Gbps operation. - 2 Gb/sec - 2.125 Gbps operation. 28 Embedded Web Server User Guide
