2.3. Switch Labeling
To identify each port, I NTELLA P ATCH switches use the following port labeling conventions:
Blades have varying numbers of ports, and a chassis may not be fully populated with blades.
The greatest number on each blade and the greatest letter in each chassis varies, therefore,
according to the number of ports in a blade and the number of blades installed in a chassis.
W EB X refers to ports using these labels. You can use the W EB X to assign names to your
ports, names that indicate devices they connect to or to provide other meaningful aids to
memory. For details, see
Port Properties on page 50.
2.4. Patching Ports
A PCON ’s W EB X features the following methods to patch ports:
• Interactive patching: Patch ports interactively using a graphical, click-and-drop interface.
For details, see
Realtime on page 33.
• Batch operations: Create a patching configuration for the entire switch at once and then
have this configuration take effect all at the same time. For details, see
Realtime on
page 33.
• Quick patching: Type in one or more port names, or select from a dropdown list, to make
a few quick patches. For details, see
By Name on page 42.
• Preset configurations: Patch ports according to a preset configuration. For details, see
By Preset (Presets) on page 45.
• Import configuration settings: Patch ports according to settings you exported from
another I
NTELLA P ATCH switch. For details, see Restore Settings on page 97.
