dialog box. Use this dialog
box to swap addresses between ports.

,
and the

on that dialog box to reset the
port. If a switch is attached to the port and is online, this operation sends a link reset to
the attached switch; otherwise, this action disables port beaconing for the port. And if
the port is in a failed state, such as after failing a loopback test, the reset restores the
port to an operational state, clearing the service required (amber) LED. The reset does
not affect other ports in the switch.
