Disable network protocols (optional)
By factory default, all supported network protocols are enabled. Disabling unused protocols has the
following benefits:
●
Decreases product-generated network traffic
●
Provides only pertinent information on the configuration page
●
Allows the product control panel to display protocol-specific error and warning messages
Link speed and duplex settings
The link speed and communication mode of the product must match the network. For most situations,
leave the product in automatic mode. Incorrect changes to the link speed and duplex settings might
prevent the product from communicating with other network devices. If you need to make changes,
use the product control panel.
NOTE:
Making changes to these settings causes the product to turn off and then on. Make changes
only when the product is idle.
