Port Management Configuring the Port Settings 6 For Cisco RV016 only, choose the number of WAN ports from the drop-down list, or keep the default number, 2. If you change the number, save your settings. (You can also change the number of WAN ports by using the Setup > Network page.) The following read-only information is displayed for each port: • Port ID: The port number or name, as it is labeled on the device • Interface: The interface type: LAN, WAN, or DMZ Enter the following settings, as needed: • Disable: Check this box to disable a port. By default, all ports are enabled. • Priority (for LAN ports only): Use this setting to ensure Quality of Service by prioritizing the traffic for devices on particular ports. For example, you might assign High priority to a port that is used for gaming or videoconferencing. For each port, select the appropriate priority level, High or Normal. The default setting is Normal. • Speed: If you want to adjust this setting, first uncheck the Enable box in the Auto Neg column to disable auto-negotiation. Then select the port speed: 10M or 100M. • Duplex: If you want to set the duplex mode, first uncheck the Enable box in the Auto Neg column to disable auto-negotiation. Select the duplex mode, Half or Full. • Auto Neg.: Check the Enable box to allow the router to auto-negotiate connection speeds and duplex mode. This feature is enabled by default. • VLAN (for LAN ports only): All LAN ports are on VLAN 1 by default. To place a port on a separate VLAN, choose a VLAN from the drop-down list. The number of available VLANs equals the number of LAN ports: 4 on Cisco RV042 and RV042G, 8 on Cisco RV082, and up to 13 on Cisco RV016 (depending on the usage of the dual-function ports). For example, on Port 4, you may have an Ethernet switch that provides Internet connectivity to guest users in a conference room. To prevent your guests from accessing the file servers and printers on your LAN, you could put Port 4 on VLAN 2 and leave the other ports on VLAN 1. There is no communication between devices on separate VLANs. Cisco Small Business RV0xx Series Routers Administration Guide 96
