5. Highlight the setting under the “SwitchingMode” column to

adjust the switching method for the chosen port. Press

<ENTER> to use the arrow keys to cycle through

Cut-through (CT), Store-and-forward (S&F), Adaptive cut-

through (A-CT) or Fragment-free (FgFree) modes. Press

<ENTER> again to confirm the choice.

6. Highlight the setting under the “FlowControl” column for

the chosen port and press <ENTER> to use the arrow keys to

toggle between enabling and disabling Flow Control for the

port. Flow Control allows a port that is receiving data to

signal the sender when its buffer is full, thereby ending the

transmission.** Press <ENTER> again to confirm the choice.

*Note: Auto-Negotiation will appear as a choice under the “Duplex” column

only for 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX ports. If a 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX port

is not being used, its default duplex setting will appear as Half. When

a connection is made, the port will default to Auto.

**Note: The type of flow control employed by the TigerSwitch 100 uses packet

collisions as the method by which the receiving port signals the sender.

Therefore, because collisions do not occur in full-duplex mode, Flow

Control does not operate in ports configured in full-duplex.

In addition, when Flow Control is enabled for the 100BASE-FX ports,

the allowable cable run distance is decreased from 412 m to 180 m in

half-duplex mode. (See “Connecting 100BASE-FX ports” in Chapter 3).
