Setting the Type of a Dual-Purpose Uplink Port

Some IE 3000 switches support dual-purpose uplink ports.By default, the switch dynamically selects the

interface type that first links up. However, you can use the media-type interface configuration command

to manually select the RJ-45 connector or the SFP module connector. For more information, see the

"Dual-Purpose Uplink Ports" section on page

Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to select which dual-purpose uplink to activate so

that you can set the speed and duplex. This procedure is optional.

The switch might not support a pre-standard powered

device—such as Cisco IP phones and access points that do

not fully support IEEE 802.3af—if that powered device is

connected to the switch through a crossover cable. This is

regardless of whether auto-MIDX is enabled on the switch
