A unit/port number list is composed of one or more list items, each of which can
be a single number or a range of numbers (where the numbers represents one or
more ports). If a list item is preceded by a number and then a slash (/), the number
represents a stack unit.
For example, 1/1-7,2/1-7,2/9,3/1-4,4/12 is a valid unit/port number list (see entry
S1 in Figure62 on page 178). It represents the following port order:
•Unit 1: ports 1 to 7
•Unit 2: ports 1 to 7 and port 9
•Unit 3: ports 1 to 4
•Unit 4: port 12
Accelerator keys for repetitive tasks
You can use certain keystrokes as “accelerator keys” to help speed up repetitive
tasks. For example, suppose you want to modify the Port List field in the MAC
Address Security Port List screen (Figure62 on page 178). You can modify the
port list in any of the following ways:
•Add a new port to an existing port number list .
•Remove a port from an existing port number list.
•Copy an existing field into an adjacent field.
Adding a new port to an existing port number list
In the example shown in Figure62 on page 178, S3 shows the Port List field
values as:
1/3,2/7,3/1-4
If you want to add another port (for example, port 2/9) to the existing port number
list, you could highlight the field and then type another port list, includi ng the new
port number 1/3,2/7,2/9,3/1-4 [Return]. This method can be cumbersome.
