Setup > Green Ethernet

The Green Ethernet Configuration screen allows you to
enable energy-efficient Ethernet (EEE). EEE optimizes
power consumption by monitoring both port and
system power requirements, while minimizing energy
consumption. Green Ethernet ensures that the network
operation is not comprimised, while at the same time
maintaining a Green network.

This feature has been added to version 1.1 of SRW2048
and to version 1.3 of SRW2024 and SRW2016.

Setup > Green Ethernet

Energy Saving Mode

Indicates if Green Ethernet is

enabled on the device. The possible field values are:

Enable

Enables Green Ethernet on the device. This is

the default value.

Disable

Disables Green Ethernet on the device.

Energy Saving

Indicates the amount of energy conserved

by enabling Green Ethernet.

Port Management > Port Settings

The Port Settings screen shows you the settings for each of
the Switch’s ports.

(transmission occurs in both directions simultaneously) or
Half (transmission occurs in only one direction at a time).
This mode can be configured only when auto-negotiation
is disabled and port speed is set to 10Mbps or 100Mbps.
It cannot be configured on Link Aggregation Groups
(LAGs).

MDI/MIDX

The MDI/MDIX status of the port. The MDI

setting is used if the port is connected to an end station.
The MDIX setting is used if the port is connected to a hub
or another switch.
