Port Groups

Port groups allow you to group ports together across network devices to perform common port-based configuration and monitoring activities.

Once configured you can use port groups to perform the following:

•Deploy common configurations to all ports in a group.

•Collect port usage data for all ports in a group.

You can see all port groups; however, under each group, you can only see devices that belong to your area of responsibility (AOR). You can only see user-defined port groups that belong to your AOR.
