Overriding a Profile's Interface Configuration

A profile‘s interface configuration can be defined to support separate physical Ethernet configurations both unique and specific to RFS 4000 controllers and NX 5500 and NX 7500 series service platforms. Ports vary depending on platform, but controller or service platform models do have some of the same physical interfaces.

A controller or service platform requires its Virtual Interface be configured for layer 3 (IP) access or layer 3 service on a VLAN. A Virtual Interface defines which IP address is associated with each connected VLAN ID.

If the profile is configured to support an access point radio, an additional radios option is available, unique to the access point's radio configuration.

Each profile interface configuration can have overrides applied to customize the configuration to a unique deployment. However, once an override is applied to this configuration it becomes independent from the profile that may be shared by a group of devices in a specific deployment and my need careful administration until a profile can be re-applied to the target device.
