Hubs and switches are deliberately wired opposite the way end stations are wired, so that when a hub or switch is connected to an end station, a straight through Ethernet cable can be used, and the pairs are match up properly. When two hubs/switches are connected to each other, or two end stations are connected to each other, a crossover cable is used ensure that the correct pairs are connected. Auto MDIX does not operate on FE ports if auto negotiation is disabled. The possible field values are: - Auto - Use to automatically detect the cable type. - MDIX - Use for hubs and switches. - MDI - Use for end stations. • Current MDI/MDIX - Indicates the current device MDIX settings. The possible field values are: - MDI - The current MDI setting is MDI. - MDIX - The current MDI setting is MDIX. • Private VLAN Edge (PVE)- Indicates the Private VLAN Edge (PVE) group to which the LAG is configured. A port defined as PVE is protected by an uplink, so that it is isolated from other ports within the same VLAN. The uplink must be a GE port. • LAG - Specifies if the port is part of a LAG. If port configuration is modified while the port is a LAG member, the configuration change is only effective after the port is removed from the LAG. 300 Configuring Switch Information
