Configure Ports to Use QuickConnect Technology
EtherNet/IP QuickConnect technology enables EtherNet/IP devices to quickly
power up and join an EtherNet/IP network. The Stratix 8000 and Stratix 8300
switches can be an integral part of a network configuration that uses
QuickConnect technology. To use the switches in a network that supports
QuickConnect technology, you must apply certain port settings to the switch.
For information about configuring the switch and applying port settings for
QuickConnect technology, refer to the Ethernet QuickConnect Application
Technique, publication
ENET-AT001 .
Auto MDIX Whether the automatic medium-dependent interface crossover (auto-MDIX) feature can automatically detect the required cable connection type
(straight-through or crossover) and configure the connection appropriately. The default is Enable.
This setting is not available on the SFP module ports.
Media Type The active port type (either the RJ45 port or the SFP module port) of a dual-purpose uplink port.
By default, the switch detects whether the RJ45 port or SFP module port of a dual-purpose port is connected and uses the port accordingly. Only one port
can be active at a time. If both ports are connected, the SFP module port has priority. You cannot change the priority setting.
Choose from the following media types:
• SFP if the SFP module port must be active. If you select this option, the speed and duplex displays the current settings, and auto-MDIX displays N/A.
• RJ45 if the RJ45 port must be active. If you select this option, you can set the port speed, duplex, and auto-mdix values.
• Auto (autonegotiation) if either port can be active. If you select this option, the speed and duplex is set to auto, and auto-MDIX displays N/A.
The default is Auto.
Administrative Mode Displays one of the following administrative modes:
• Access—The interface is in permanent nontrunking mode and negotiates to convert the neighboring link into a nontrunk link even if the neighboring
interface is a trunk interface. If you choose this option, also choose an Access VLAN. An access port belongs to and carries the traffic of only one VLAN
(unless it is configured as a voice VLAN port).
• Trunk—The interface is in permanent trunking mode and negotiates to convert the neighboring link into a trunk link even if the neighboring interface
is not a trunk interface. If you choose this option, also choose whether to allow All VLANs or specified VLAN IDs
• Dynamic Auto—The interface converts the link to a trunk link if the neighboring interface is set to Trunk or Desirable mode. This mode is the default
setting. If you choose this option, specify an Access VLAN to use when the link is in Access mode. Also specify whether to allow All VLANs or specified
VLAN IDs when the link is in Trunk mode.
• Dynamic Desirable—The interface converts the link to a trunk link if the neighboring interface is set to Trunk, Dynamic Desirable, or Auto mode. If you
choose this option, specify an Access VLAN to use when the link is in access mode. Also choose whether to allow All VLANs or specified VLAN IDs when
the link is in Trunk mode.
Access VLAN The VLAN that an interface belongs to and carries traffic for, when the link is configured as or is acting as a nontrunking interface.
Allowed VLAN The VLAN or VLANs that this interface handles traffic for, when the link is configured as or is dynamically acting as a trunking interface.
To allow traffic on all available VLANs, click All VLANs.
To limit traffic to specific VLANs, click VLAN IDs and enter the VLAN numbers.
Native VLAN The VLAN that is used to transport untagged packets.
