• If you use 1 Gbps copper SFP transceivers, the remote end must have auto-negotiation
enabled. If not, the link will not be established.
Procedure
1. In the Device Physical View tab, select a port.
2. In the navigation tree, open the following folders: Configuration > Edit > Port.
3. Click General.
4. Click the Interface tab.
5. Configure the fields as required.
The 10/100BASE-TX ports do not consistently autonegotiate with older 10/100BASE-TX
equipment. You can sometimes upgrade the older devices with new firmware or driver
revisions. If an upgrade does not allow autonegotiation to correctly identify the link speed
and duplex settings, you can manually configure the settings for the link in question. Check
the Avaya Web site for the latest compatibility information.
6. Click Apply.
Interface field descriptions
Use the data in the following table to use the Interface tab.
Name
Description
Index Displays the index of the port, written in the slot/port[/
sub-port] format.
Name Configures the name of the port.
Descr Displays the description of the port. A textual string
containing information about the interface.
Type Displays the type of connector plugged in the port.
Mtu Displays the Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) for
the port. The size of the largest datagram which can
be sent or received on the interface, specified in
octets. For interfaces that are used for transmitting
network datagrams, this is the size of the largest
network datagram that can be sent on the interface.
PhysAddress Displays the physical address of the port. The
address of the interface at the protocol layer
immediately `below' the network layer in the protocol
stack. For interfaces which do not have such an
address (e.g., a serial line), this object should
contain an octet string of zero length.
VendorDescr Displays the vendor of the connector plugged in the
port. This option is only applicable to ports 1/47 to
1/50.
