Override Port-Channel Configuration

About this task

Profiles can utilize customized port channel configurations as part of their interface settings. Existing port channel profile configurations can be overridden as they become obsolete for specific device deployments.

To define or override a port channel configuration on a profile:

Procedure

Go to Configuration → Devices.
The Device Configuration screen displays. This screen lists access points, controllers and service platforms within the managed network.
Select a target device by double-clicking on the device name.

Note
You can also select the target device from the device browser in the lower, left-hand, side of the UI.

The selected device's configuration menu displays.
Go to Profile Overrides → Interface → Port Channels.

Profile Overrides - Port Channel - Main Screen

Note
A blue override icon (to the left of a parameter) defines the parameter as having an override applied. To remove an override go to the Basic Configuration section of the device and click Clear Overrides. This removes all overrides from the device.

Review existing port channel configurations and their status to determine whether a parameter requires an override:


Name	The port channel's numerical identifier assigned when it was created. The numerical name cannot be modified as part of the edit process.
Type	Whether the type is port channel.
Description	A short description (64 characters maximum) describing the port channel or differentiating it from others with similar configurations.
Admin Status	A green check mark means the listed port channel is active and currently enabled with the profile. A red “X” means the port channel is currently disabled and not available for use. The interface status can be modified with the port channel configuration as required.

After reviewing the configurations of existing port channel interfaces, determine whether a new interface needs to be created, an existing interface needs to be edited (overridden), or an existing interface needs to be deleted.
