6. Add ports to the group by selecting the port in the Available Ports list and clicking the right

arrow button.

NOTE

The Management port, peri port, and stack ports are not included in the Available Ports list.

The selected ports move from the Available Ports list to the Selected Ports list.

For VDX 6740 or VDX 6740-T devices, if you create a port group with a 40 GbE port and then
the 40 GbE port is broken out into 4 10 GbE ports, the 40 GbE port is automatically removed
from the port group. You must manually add the 4 10 GbE ports back into the port group.
This also occurs when you merge 4 10 GbE ports into a single 40 GbE port. If you create a port
group with 4 10 GbE ports and then merge the 4 10 GbE ports into a 40 GbE port, the 4 10
GbE ports are automatically removed from the port group. You must manually add the 40 GbE
port back into the group.

7. Remove ports from the group by selecting the port in the Selected Ports list and clicking the

left arrow button.

The selected ports move from the Selected Ports list to the Available Ports list.
