GS752TXS and GS728TXS Smart Switches 6. Monitor the port information to verify that the running stack mode is Ethernet. The following table describes port status fields on the Stack Port Configuration screen. Field Description Unit ID The unit number assigned to the switch. Port The stackable interfaces on the given unit. The table displays only the ports that can be used for physically connecting multiple devices to form a stack. Configured Stack Mode The manually configured mode for the interface, which is either Stack or Ethernet. If you change the stack mode on a port, the configuration is immediately saved in the NVRAM on the unit on which the port is located. However, the run-time mode is not changed until the unit resets. Running Stack Mode The mode in which the interface is currently operating. Link Status The link status (UP/DOWN) of the port. Link Speed (Gbps) The maximum speed of the stacking port. Transmit Data Rate (Mbps) The approximate rate at which the stack port transmits data. Transmit Error Rate (Errors/s) The approximate rate at which the stack port encounters errors when attempting to transmit data. Total Transmit Errors The total number of errors the stack port has encountered during data transmission since the unit booted. The counter can wrap. Receive Data Rate (Mbps) The approximate rate at which the stack port receives data. Receive Error Rate (Errors/s) The approximate rate at which the stack port encounters errors when attempting to receive data. Total Receive Errors The total number of errors the stack port has encountered while attempting to receive data since the unit booted. The counter might wrap if the number of errors exceeds the number the screen can display. 92
