To create a new configuration, click New.
The Create Port CUP Connectivity Configuration dialog box displays all ports and port

To edit an existing configuration, click the configuration, and then click Edit.
The Edit Port CUP Connectivity Configuration dialog box displays the content of the

Repeat this step for all ports you want to block. Select the Block All check box to block all ports.

4. Optional: Select the check box corresponding to a port you want to prohibit on the Prohibit

column. Repeat this step for all ports you want to prohibit. Select the Prohibit All check box to
prohibit all ports.
