Configuring Energy Efficient Ethernet and Ethernet Link Speed

You can configure 802.3az or link speed using the WebUI or CLICommand-Line Interface. A console interface with a command line shell that allows users to execute text input as commands and convert these commands to appropriate functions..

Closed In the WebUI

To configure 802.3az EEE and EthernetEthernet is a network protocol for data transmission over LAN. link speed:

1. In the Managed Network node hierarchy, navigate to the Configuration > System > Profiles page.

2. Select AP > AP Ethernet Link, and select the EthernetEthernet is a network protocol for data transmission over LAN. link profile you want to modify. The parameters for the profile are described in Ethernet Interface Link Profile Parameters.

3. The selected profile appears in the Profile Details window. The configuration parameters for the profile are described in Ethernet Interface Link Profile Parameters.

4. Select the 803.az checkbox to enable energy efficient ethernet.

5. Select the required value from the Speed drop-down list to configure the EthernetEthernet is a network protocol for data transmission over LAN. link speed. The speed value can be one of the following values:

10— 10 MbpsMegabits per second

100— 100 MbpsMegabits per second

1000—1 GbpsGigabits per second.

2500— 2.5 GbpsGigabits per second.

5000— 5 GbpsGigabits per second.

auto— Auto-negotiate. This is the default value.

6. Save your changes.

ClosedIn the CLI

To enable support for 803.az EEE, access the command-line interface in config mode and issue the following command:

(host)[mynode] (config) #ap enet-link-profile <profile>

dot3az

To configure the EthernetEthernet is a network protocol for data transmission over LAN. link speed, access the command-line interface in config mode and issue the following commands:

(host) [mynode] (config) #ap enet-link-profile <profile>

(host) [mynode] (AP Ethernet Link profile "<profile>") #speed <speed>

where <speed> can take any of the following values:

10— 10 MbpsMegabits per second

100— 100 MbpsMegabits per second

1000—1 GbpsGigabits per second.

2500— 2.5 GbpsGigabits per second.

5000— 5 GbpsGigabits per second.

auto— Auto-negotiate. This is the default value.

Description

Speed

The speed of the EthernetEthernet is a network protocol for data transmission over LAN. interface, either 10 MbpsMegabits per second, 100 MbpsMegabits per second, 1000 MbpsMegabits per second (1 GbpsGigabits per second.), or auto-negotiated.

Duplex

The duplex mode of the EthernetEthernet is a network protocol for data transmission over LAN. interface, either full, half, or auto-negotiated.

802.3az (EEE)

Select this check box to enable support for 802.1az Energy Efficient EthernetEthernet is a network protocol for data transmission over LAN..

Power Over Ethernet

Enable PoEPower over Ethernet. PoE is a technology for wired Ethernet LANs to carry electric power required for the device in the data cables. The IEEE 802.3af PoE standard provides up to 15.4 W of power on each port. for APs that support PoEPower over Ethernet.
