Protected Ports Configuration

If a port is configured as protected, it does not forward traffic to any other protected port on

the switch, but it will forward traffic to unprotected ports. Use the Protected Ports

Configuration page to configure the ports as protected or unprotected. You need read-write

access privileges to modify the configuration.

To display the Protected Ports Configuration page, click the Security

 Traffic Control 

Protected Ports.

To configure protected ports:

1. Use Group ID to identify a group of protected ports that can be combined into a logical

group. Traffic can flow between protected ports belonging to different groups, but not

within the same group. The selection box lists all the possible protected port Group IDs

supported for the current platform. The valid range of the Group ID is 0 to 2.

2. Use the optional Group Name field to associate a name with the protected ports group

(used for identification purposes). It can be up to 32 alphanumeric characters long, including

blanks. The default is blank. This field is optional.

3. Click the orange bar to display the available ports.

4. Click the box below each port to configure as a protected port. The selection list consists of

physical ports, protected as well as unprotected. The protected ports are tick-marked to

differentiate between them. No traffic forwarding is possible between two protected ports. If

left unconfigured, the default state is unprotected. No traffic forwarding is possible between

two protected ports.

5. Click REFRESH to refresh the page with the most current data from the switch.

6. Click CANCEL to cancel the configuration on the screen and reset the data on the screen to

the latest value of the switch.

7. If you make changes to the page, click APPLY to apply the changes to the system.

Configuration changes take effect immediately.
