Managing Ports

The Ports pages allows you to manage and configure ports for various functions. In case of an GigaVUE-HC2, the pages for managing inline bypass ports are available by selecting Inline Bypass from the main navigation pane.

Before beginning with managing and configuring ports, make sure that the user role, which is assigned to a User Group, has the permission for the specific ports on the system. For details on the port-based access levels, refer to the GigaVUE-OS CLI User’s Guide and “Managing Roles and Users” in the GigaVUE-OS H-VUE Administration Guide.

This section provides a description of the Ports pages in the H-VUE UI. It covers the following topics:

Ports
Port Groups
Port Pairs
Tool Mirrors
Stack Links
IP Interfaces
Circuit Tunnels

Note:  Starting in software version 5.5.01, any change in the port health status is indicated by a Status Update notification pop-up that appears in the bottom-left corner of the following port pages:

Ports > All Ports
Port Groups > All Port Groups
Port Groups > GigaStream
Port Pairs
Tool Mirrors
Stack Links
IP Interfaces

The link in the notification opens the port quick view.
