Device Configuration
Port Type The port type; optionally includes reference to
the module to which it is attached and port
connector type.
Port Functionality The physical media type of the selected port. If
the port conforms to a certain standard
(Repeater, Transceiver, 10BaseT, etc.), this
standard is displayed. If the port does not
conform to any standard, Private is displayed.
Administrative Status The administrative state of the selected port:
• Enabled - The port is enabled and can
transmit and receive packets.
• Disabled - The port is disabled and
cannot transmit or receive packets.
Tagging Mode The port’s operational mode regarding VLANs.
The possible modes are:
• Clear - Transmits each outgoing packet in
untagged format if it belongs to the port’s
VLAN. Otherwise, it discards the packet.
• IEEE-802.1Q - VLAN tagging, per IEEE
802.1Q VLAN standard. The port will
transmit frames with a VLAN ID of
1 - 3071.
VLAN ID The VLAN number of the port.
Port Priority Level The priority level of packets exiting the port or
ports on the module. For effective
transmission, multimedia packets must be
received at regular intervals. To ensure this,
you can assign priorities to packets coming out
of a port.
Whenever traffic load is extreme and a port
cannot accept all incoming packets, packets
sent from a port with the highest priority will
pass through first. However, a fairness
mechanism will allow low priority packets to
eventually enter the bus.
Possible values are User Priority 0...User
Priority 7
