Adding a new port to an existing port number list
In the example shown in Figure 21 , S3 shows the Port List field values as:
1/3,2/7,3/1-4
If you want to add another port (for example, port 2/9 ) to the existing port number
list, you could highlight the field and then type another port list, including the new
port number 1/3,2/7,
2/9 ,3/1-4 Enter . This method can be cumbersome.
As an alternative method instead, you can highlight the field and then enter +2/9
Enter . The existing field keeps the previous list and adds the new port number (2/
9) between ports 2/7 and 3/14.
(If you choose to add port 2/8 to the existing port number list, the field accepts the
new port 2/8 but shows the new port number list field as: 1/3,2/7-8,3/1-4.)
Removing a port from an existing port number list
To remove a port from the port number list, use the minus sign (-) character
instead of the plus sign (+) character as described above.
Copying an existing field into and adjacent field
You can use the period (.) character to copy a previously entered field value into
the field directly next to it. For example, to copy the Allowed Source S3 (shown in
Figure 21 ) into the next field (entry 6):
1 Enter a MAC address into the next MAC address field.
2
Highlight the (blank) Allowed Source field.
3 Enter the period (.) character and click Return.
The port number list from the previous entry is copied into the new field.
