Editing Ports Across Multiple Switches

Before the 5.2.1 release, you could edit ports for one switch at a time. After the 5.2.1 release, you can edit ports for multiple switches in the same switch group.

For instance, if you need to disable ports 1/1/11 and 1/1/12 on multiple switches, the controller lets you filter the ports list by typing your search criteria.

The search criteria is based on the following:

  • Switch Name
  • Port Numbers - comma separated values (1/1/1,1/1/11,1/1/24), (or) Range of ports (1/1/1 to 1/1/20)
  • VLAN Membership
  • PoE Detected Ports
  • Port Status
  • Admin Status

Complete the following steps to edit ports across multiple switches.

  1. On the menu, click Network > Wired > Switches to disaply the Switches window.
  2. From the system tree, select a Domain > Switch Group or Switch Group.
  3. In the Details pane, click the Switches and Ports tab.
