Managing Ports

The Ports pages allows you to manage and configure ports for various functions. In case of inline supported devices, 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 Reference Guide and “Managing Roles and Users” in the GigaVUE Administration Guide.

This section provides a description of the Ports pages in the GigaVUE-FM 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 immediately in 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.
