The MultiSwitch 700 Device View
2-30 Managing the Module
Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet Port Configuration windows are available from the
Device View Port menus; the COM Port option is available from the Device menu.
Note that no configuration option currently exists for ATM ports.
Configuring Standard Ethernet and FDDI Ports
The Port Configuration window available for both standard Ethernet and FDDI
ports allows you to set an interface to either Standard or Full Duplex Mode. Full
Duplex mode effectively doubles the available wire speed by allowing the
interface to both receive and transmit simultaneously. This window will also
display the mode currently in effect on the selected interface.
To access the Port Configuration Window:
1. Select the port you wish to configure. The Port Menu will display.
2. Click Configuration. The Port Configuration window, Figure 2-15 , opens.

different window displays; see
Configuring Fast Ethernet Ports on First Generation
Modules , on page 2-31 , or Configuring Ethernet Ports on Second Generation
Modules , on page page 2-36 , for information on configuring these ports.
