Port Flow Control (FC)

This allows a full-duplex port to negotiate with connected equipment to implement a flow
control process using embedded Pause frames. The default setting is ON.


Back Pressure (BP)

This allows a half-duplex port to use back pressure as a method of flow control. The default
is OFF.


Bandwidth In/Out

Limits a port transmit and receive bandwidth. The bandwidth limiting can be configured
between 0 - 999 in 100Kbps increments. The default is 0, which is no rate limiting.


Priority

Configures a port to be high or low priority. Packets entering this port will be assigned a
priority and will follow the rule as defined in the Priority Configuration menu. The default is
Disable.


Security

Stops a port from learning new MAC addresses, which is useful when security is needed to
disallow an unauthorized connection to the port. This can be used in conjunction with Static
MAC Address Configuration to allow only a known and authorized MAC address to use this
port. The default is OFF.
