Abstract
A system and method automatically maintains data indicating a type of transmission medium connected at a port in a data switch device. The method comprises reading first transmission medium type data representing whether a first transmission medium type is connected to the port. A check is performed to determine whether a stored first transmission medium value is updated based at least in part on the first transmission medium type data, the first transmission medium value representing whether the first transmission medium type is actively connected. The method also involves reading second transmission medium type data representing whether a second transmission medium type is connected to the port. A check is performed to determine whether a stored second transmission medium value is updated based at least in part on the second transmission medium type data, the second transmission medium value representing whether the second transmission medium type is actively connected.
