LABEL DESCRIPTION
Port This is the Ethernet port (LAN) or wireless LAN adaptor (WLAN).
Status This shows the port speed and duplex setting if you are using
Ethernet encapsulation for the Ethernet port. Ethernet port
connections can be in half-duplex or full-duplex mode. Full-duplex
refers to a device's ability to send and receive simultaneously, while
half-duplex indicates that traffic can flow in only one direction at a
time. The Ethernet port must use the same speed or duplex mode
setting as the peer Ethernet port in order to connect.
This shows the transmission speed only for the wireless adaptors.
