AV profiles are configurations associated
with switch ports and AV traffic on ICX switches. You can view and manage AV profiles
configured on ICX switches, including profile details, associated templates, and port-level
assignments.
The AV Profiles interface provides two
sub-tabs: AV
profiles and AV Profile Template (Shared).
