External Switch Configuration
This table displays No Data when external switches have not been provisioned.
|
ID # |
ID number of the external switch: 1, 2, 3, or 4. |
| Model | Model number of the extended switch. |
| Status |
Status of the switch: A green Enabled icon indicates the switch is up and available. When an extended switch has been powered off and then the appliance is restarted (rebooted), it might take up to five minutes before the appliance discovers the extended switch and reports the Status of the switch as up and available. |
| IP Address | IP address of the extended switch. |
| Switch Mode | Mode of the switch, such as Standalone. |
| Switch Management | Switch port used for management traffic. |
| Firewall Uplink | Port on the appliance configured as the appliance uplink. If no appliance port has been configured as the appliance uplink, the column displays None. |
| Switch Uplink | Port on the extended switch configured as the switch uplink. If no switch port has been configured as the switch uplink, the column displays None. |
| Parent Switch ID | For daisy-chained switches, the ID of the parent switch. If no switch port has been configured as the parent switch, the column displays N/A. |
| Parent Switch Uplink |
Port on a daisy-chained parent switch configured as the switch uplink. If no switch port has been configured as the parent switch uplink, the column displays N/A. |

External Switch Configuration provides information about the external switches provisioned on the appliance and allows you to manage the switch. You can also configure or delete an extended switch. To configure an extended switch, see PortShield Groups; to delete an extended switch, see the SonicWallX-Series Solution Deployment Guide.
