Management Ethernet port
The management Ethernet port is a 10Base-T/100Base-TX/1000Base-T RJ-45 port. It allows you to
upgrade software and manage the router through a network management server without using any
service interface of the router. The management Ethernet port is used only for managing the router and
it has no service processing capabilities such as data forwarding.

NOTE:
•
The media dependent interface (MDI) standard is typically used on the Ethernet port of network
adapters. The media dependent interface crossover (MDI-X) standard is typically used on hubs or LAN
switches.
•
For a combo interface, you can use either the copper port or the fiber port. To switch between the copper
and fiber ports, use the
combo enable
{
copper
|
fiber
} command in interface view.
