Port Setup
In this router, users can configure the connection status for each port, such as Priority, Speed, Duplex, Auto-Negotiation and VLAN.
Basic Per Port Config.
Port ID:
They are port 1~8, DMZ/Internet and Internet.
Interface: They are
LAN, WAN2 or DMZ, WAN1.
Disable: Check the box, the port will be
disabled. It is a per-port setting.
Priority:
Select
High or Normal for Port-based QoS (Quality of
Service). QoS is used to maximize a network’s performance and this setting
allows you to prioritize performance on eight LAN ports.
Speed: Users can manually
config the per-port speed as 10Mbps or 100Mbps.
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.
