• Long distance is not displayed from the Edit window.

these options allow you to set the speed limit the port can auto-negotiate.
Creating port groups
You can group a number of N_Ports (and its mapped F_Ports) together to connect to multiple
independent fabrics or to create performance optimized ports. To group a number of ports, you must
create a new port group and assign desired N_Ports to it. The N_Port grouping option is enabled by
default, and all N_Ports are members of a default port group 0 (pg0). Access Gateway prevents failover
of F_Ports across N_Port groups.
NOTE
If you want to distribute F_Ports among groups, you can leave all ports in the default port group 0, or
you can disable N_Port grouping.
To create port groups, perform the following steps.
1. Click a port in the Switch View to open the Port Admin tab.
2. Select Advanced from Configure > Port Configuration Policy.
3. Select a port or ports to configure.
4. Select Configure N-Port Groups from the Actions list.
