Auto-Negotiate - check this box if you want Auto Negotiation to determine speed
and duplex parameters. The speed and duplex parameters must match the
parameters on the router switch.
Speed - the network speed. Ensure that this setting matches the speed set on the
switch port that your module is connected to.
This field is enabled when Auto-Negotiate is not selected.
Duplex - the duplex parameter determines how communication is sent and
received.
Select Full if you want both ends of the communication to be able to send and
receive signals at the same time.
Select Half if you still want the communication to be bidirectional, but the
signals can only flow in one direction at a time.
Ensure that this setting matches the speed set on the switch port that your module
is connected to.
After modifying the System or Network Settings, click [Save]. A popup message will
ask you to confirm your new settings. Click [Yes] or [No]. If you click [Yes], the
module will automatically reboot and the changes will take effect. If you click [No],
no changes will take effect.
