Configuring PortShield Interfaces on NETWORK | System > PortShield Groups
Port Graphics displays a graphical representation of the current configuration of PortShield interfaces. For a description of the graphic display, see Viewing Interfaces (Ports) on Port Graphics.
You can manually group ports using the graphical PortShield Groups interface by clicking on the ports you want to group. Grouping ports allows them to share a common network subnet as well as common zone settings.
Interfaces must be configured before being grouped with PortShield.
To configure PortShield groups
- In the port graphic, select the interface(s) you want to configure as part of a PortShield group. The interfaces turn yellow.
- Click Configure. The Edit Switch Port dialog displays.
The name of the interface for this port is dimmed and cannot be changed.
- From Port Enable, select whether you want to enable or disable the interfaces. The default is Enabled.
- From PortShield Interface, select which interface you want to assign as the master interface for this PortShield interfaces. The default is Unassigned.
PortShield options may be disabled for external switch ports.
- From Link Speed, select the link speed for the interfaces:
- Auto Negotiate (default)
- 1000 Mbps – Full Duplex
- 100 Mbps – Full Duplex
- 100 Mbps – Half Duplex
- 10 Mbps – Full Duplex
- 10 Mbps – Half Duplex
- Click OK.
