The five columns of the table display the following information:
• "Port"
This shows the port (with the SCALANCE X204RNA EEC also the SFP slot) to which the
following information relates.
• "Type"
Displays the type of port. This information is important because difference modules and
therefore different ports can be used in some slots. The following port types are possible:
– TP 100 TX
– FO 100 FX
• "Negotiation"
Indicates whether or not autonegotiation is enabled.
Note
Since the SCALANCE X-200RNA supports only 100 Mbps Ethernet in full duplex mode,
autonegotiation is always enabled.
• "Active"
Indicates whether or not the port is turned on (true). Data traffic is possible only over an
enabled port.
Note
With the SCALANCE X-200RNA, the ports cannot be turned off.
• "Link"
Shows the connection status to the network. The available options are as follows:
– Up
The port has a valid link to the network, a link integrity signal is being received.
– Down
The link is down, for example because the connected device is turned off.

Switch Forwarding Database
The "Switch Forwarding Database" dialog box appears if you click the "FDB" folder icon.
The dialog box shows the dynamically learnt MAC addresses in the FDB table for all ports. In
addition to this, to allow PRP diagnostics, the screen also shows whether the displayed MAC
addresses are listed in the duplicate filter or in the proxy node table.
