You can set the port to auto-negotiate speed, or to 100Mbps or 1000Mbps

This option is view-only if auto-negotiate is selected for Speed/Duplex.

or <High > settings force the packet into one of two priority queues.
Forcing a packet into a queue does not retag the packet.

Full/Half: Indicates a device is connected at full-duplex or half-duplex.

IEEE/BackP: Indicates the type of flow control, either IEEE PAUSE
frames or backpressure.
