In the Speed field, specify the speed value for the selected port. Possible field values are as follows: • Auto. All supported speeds. • 10. 10 Mbits/second • 100. 100 Mbits/second The delimiter characters for setting different speed values are a comma (,), a period (.) and a space ( ). For you to set the auto-negotiation speed, the autonegotiation mode must be set to Enable. The default is Auto. Note: After you change the speed value, the switch might be inaccessible for a number of seconds while the new settings take effect. 11. From the Duplex Mode menu, select the duplex mode for the selected port. Possible values are as follows: • Auto. Indicates that speed is set by the auto-negotiation process. • Full. Indicates that the interface supports transmission between the devices in both directions simultaneously. • Half. Indicates that the interface supports transmission between the devices in only one direction at a time. The default is Auto. Note: After you change the duplex mode, the switch might be inaccessible for a number of seconds while the new settings take effect. 12. Use the Link Trap menu to specify whether or not to send a trap when link status changes. The Link Trap menu is enabled by default. However, for LAG interfaces, the menu is disabled. 13. In the Frame Size field, specify the maximum Ethernet frame size the interface supports or is configured to use, including Ethernet header, CRC, and payload. The range is 1500 to 9198. The default maximum frame size is 1500. 14. From the Flow Control menu, select the configuration for IEEE 802.3 flow control. • Disable.

ProSAFE 8-Port or 16-Port Gigabit Smart Managed Switch Model GS418TPP, GS510TLP, and GS510TPP
Note:
After you change the autonegotiation mode, the switch might be
inaccessible for a number of seconds while the new settings take
effect.
10.
In the
Speed
field, specify the speed value for the selected port.
Possible field values are as follows:
Auto
. All supported speeds.
10
. 10 Mbits/second
100
. 100 Mbits/second
The delimiter characters for setting different speed values are a comma (,), a period (.)
and a space ( ). For you to set the auto-negotiation speed, the autonegotiation mode
must be set to
Enable
. The default is Auto.
Note:
After you change the speed value, the switch might be inaccessible for
a number of seconds while the new settings take effect.
11.
From the
Duplex Mode
menu, select the duplex mode for the selected port.
Possible values are as follows:
Auto
. Indicates that speed is set by the auto-negotiation process.
Full
. Indicates that the interface supports transmission between the devices in both
directions simultaneously.
Half
. Indicates that the interface supports transmission between the devices in only
one direction at a time.
The default is Auto.
Note:
After you change the duplex mode, the switch might be inaccessible
for a number of seconds while the new settings take effect.
12.
Use the
Link Trap
menu to specify whether or not to send a trap when link status changes.
The
Link Trap
menu is enabled by default. However, for LAG interfaces, the menu is
disabled.
13.
In the
Frame Size
field, specify the maximum Ethernet frame size the interface supports or
is configured to use, including Ethernet header, CRC, and payload.
The range is 1500 to 9198. The default maximum frame size is 1500.
14.
From the
Flow Control
menu, select the configuration for IEEE 802.3 flow control.
Disable
. If the port buffers become full, the switch does not send pause frames, and
data loss could occur. This is the default setting.
Symmetric
. If the port buffers become full, the switch sends pause frames to stop
traffic.
Flow control helps to prevent data loss when the port cannot keep up with the number
of frames being switched. When you enable flow control, the switch can send a pause
