GS105Ev2 Flow Control Enabled Or Disabled
Stupid question here, but I don't quite understand the wording. When I go to Port Status next to each port under the Flow Control column it says Enable. So does this mean Flow Control is enabled or disabled on each port. Accrding to the manual flow control is disabled by default, but it makes me think that it is Enabled.
Hello cbritton1978,
Welcome to NETGEAR's Online community!
Under normal circumstances, the GS105Ev2 in its factory state, Flow Conrtol is "Disabled" for all prots by default, and should appear just as the illustration in the User Manual.
So in your case, it probably means the switch was not in its factory state, and flow contol has already been enabled. "Enable" means has been enabled or active.
Let us know if that clears your confusion.
Thanks
