to reconfigure the switch.
Connect to the Switch Ports
This section describes how to connect to these ports.
• 10/100 copper ports
• dual-purpose uplink (10/100/1000 and SFP fiber) ports
• 100BaseFX fiber ports
For simplified cabling, the automatic medium-dependent interface crossover
(auto-MDIX) feature is enabled by default on the switch. With auto-MDIX
enabled, the switch detects the required cable type for copper Ethernet
connections and configures the interfaces accordingly. Therefore, you can use
either a crossover or a straight-through cable for connections to a switch
10/100 or 10/100/1000 Ethernet port, regardless of the type of device on the
other end of the connection.
TIP
This procedure resets the switch to its original factory settings.
Any configuration changes you may have made will be lost.
