This field displays the port number.

Use this row only if you want to make some settings the same for all ports.
Use this row first to set the common settings and then make adjustments on
a port-by-port basis.

Note: Changes in this row are copied to all the ports as soon as you

make them.

list box. Choices are Egress (outgoing), Ingress (incoming) and Both.

Click Apply to save your changes to the Switch’s run-time memory. The
Switch loses these changes if it is turned off or loses power, so use the Save
link on the top navigation panel to save your changes to the non-volatile
memory when you are done configuring.
