Router Interfaces Page
Use the Router Interfaces page to view, create, edit, and delete interface definitions (physical and virtual)
on a selected Cisco IOS router. The Router Interfaces page displays interfaces that were discovered by
Security Manager as well as interfaces added manually after you added the device to the system.
Note Unlike other router policies, the Interfaces policy cannot be shared among multiple devices. The
Advanced Settings policy, however, may be shared. See Local Policies vs. Shared Policies, page 5-3.
For more information, see Basic Interface Settings on Cisco IOS Routers, page 59-1.
Navigation Path
Select a Cisco IOS router from the Device selector, then select Interfaces > Interfaces from the Policy
selector.
