FS728TP Smart Switch Software Administration Manual Interface Naming Convention The FS728TP Smart Switch supports physical and logical interfaces. Interfaces are identified by their type and the interface number. Physical ports 1-24 are Fast Ethernet interfaces, and physical ports 25-28 are gigabit interfaces. The number of the port is identified on the front panel. You configure the logical interfaces by using the software. The following table describes the naming convention for all interfaces available on the switch. Interface Description Example Physical The physical ports include Fast Ethernet and Gigabit e1, e2, e3 Ethernet interfaces and are numbered sequentially g1, g2, g3 starting from one.
