Duplex: Users can manually config the per-port duplex as half-duplex or full-duplex.
Auto-negotiation: Users can configure the per-port mode as Auto-negotiation, so Users will not need to setup speed and duplex.
VLAN (Virtual LAN
): A VLAN Group is a broadcast domain, and the stations on the same VLAN group can communicate with each other, and the stations on the separate VLAN groups can not communicate with each other. Broadcast and multicast frames are constrained by VLAN boundaries so only stations whose ports are members of the same VLAN can see those frames.
Select the VLAN group for each port and max is 8-VLAN group. The stations on the same VLAN groups can communicate each other.
