Click the Edit link for a shared uplink set on the Shared Uplink Sets (External Connections) screen (on page 130).

Enter a shared uplink set name in the Find Configuration Items search field in the left navigation tree, and then select the shared uplink set.

Use this screen to edit the properties of an existing shared uplink set, add an associated network, or delete an associated network. This screen has the same fields as the Define Shared Uplink screen. The screen can be edited only by users with network role permissions, but it is viewable by all authorized users.

The following table describes the fields within the Edit Shared Uplink Set screen.

For shared uplink sets using an FCoE associated network, the following restrictions apply:

You cannot change the bay number. If you want to use a different bay number, you must delete the FCoE network first, and then add a new one.

If a shared uplink set is assigned to a profile, you cannot delete the FCoE network.

A momentary traffic interruption occurs after adding or editing the first FCoE network in an existing Shared Uplink Set whose associated networks are currently in use. If the domain is part of a VC domain group, each domain in the group experiences the traffic interruption.
