From the RUCKUS One web interface, you can edit a single switch port or multiple ports at the same time.

1. On the navigation bar, click Wired > Switches > Switch List.
   The Switch page is displayed.
2. Click the name of the switch to edit.
   The switch page is displayed.
3. Select the Overview tab.
4. Select the Ports sub-tab to view the ports.
5. (Optional) To search for a specific port, enter the Port Name, Port Number, or Neighbor Name in the Search field, all matching ports are displayed. You can also search by the switch status (UP or DOWN) or by and the VLAN IDs associated with the switch.
6. Click the checkbox for a specific port or multiple ports, then click the Edit option that appears above the table.
   The Edit Port sidebar is displayed.

   

   You can edit the following properties of a port:

   • Port Name: Enter the port name.
   • Authentication: You can enable or disable this feature using the toggle. When enabled, use the drop-down menu to select the Authentication Profile to apply to the switch port. You can click Customize to modify the profile settings. For more information refer to Understanding the Authentication Profile and Creating an Authentication Profile.
   • Port Enabled: When the toggle is enabled, the switch port is active and can transmit and receive data. This allows devices connected to the port to communicate with the network. Disabling a port prevents any data transmission through that port.
   • Port VLANs: Configuring VLANs on switch ports segments the network, enhances security, reduces broadcast traffic, and improves performance. You can edit tagged and untagged VLANs.
   • PoE Enabled: Activating Power over Ethernet (PoE) on a switch port enables the switch to supply power to devices such as IP phones, wireless access points, and cameras via the Ethernet cable. You can use the toggle to enable or disable PoE for a switch port.
   • PoE Class: PoE classes define the amount of power a connected PoE-enabled device can receive from a switch. Select a value from the drop-down menu.
     • Class 0 (Default): This class provides up to 15.4 watts of power. It is the default classification for devices that do not specify a power class.
     • Class 1 (Low Power): This class supplies up to 4 watts of power and is suitable for low-power devices such as certain sensors.
     • Class 2 (Medium Power): This class delivers up to 7 watts of power which is used for devices like basic IP phones.
     • Class 3 (Full Power): This class offers up to 15.4 watts of power for more demanding devices such as advanced IP phones and some wireless access points.
     • Class 4 (High Power, PoE+): This class provides up to 30 watts of power for high-power devices such as cameras and more advanced wireless access points.
   • PoE Priority: PoE priority determines the order in which devices receive power from a PoE switch when the power budget is exceeded. Select a number from the drop-down menu.
   • PoE Budget: A PoE budget is the total power a PoE switch can supply to all connected devices. It ensures the switch can power all devices without exceeding its capacity. It is measured in mWatts.
   • Protected Port: A protected port prevents traffic from being forwarded to other protected ports on the same switch, enhancing network security. You can enable or disable this feature using the toggle.
   • LLDP Enabled: When LLDP is enabled on a switch port, it allows the port to share and receive information about connected devices, aiding in network discovery and management. You can enable or disable this feature using the toggle.
   • Port Speed: Port speed on a switch determines the rate at which data can be transmitted through the network port. Select a port speed from the drop-down menu. The list of port speeds is dependent on the Ethernet speed rating of the port (such as 2.5G, 10G, 25G, and so on).

     These values refer to the speed and duplex settings of a network port:

     • 10-FULL: This setting indicates a port speed of 10 Mbps with full duplex, allowing simultaneous data transmission and reception.
     • 10-HALF: This setting indicates a port speed of 10 Mbps with half duplex, permitting either data transmission or reception at one time, but not both.
     • 100-FULL: This setting indicates a port speed of 100 Mbps with full duplex, enabling simultaneous data transmission and reception.
     • 100-HALF: This setting indicates a port speed of 100 Mbps with half duplex, allowing either data transmission or reception at one time, but not both.
     • 1000-FULL: This setting indicates a port speed of 1000 Mbps (1 Gbps) with full duplex, facilitating simultaneous data transmission and reception at 1 Gbps.
     • 1000-FULL-MASTER: This setting is similar to 1000-FULL but designates the port as the master in a master-slave configuration used when one device controls the timing of data transmission.
     Note: Beginning with RUCKUS FastIron 10.0.20b and later, 10.0.10f and later, the RUCKUS ICX 7850-48C switch supports 2.5-Gbps and 5-Gbps port speeds for port numbers 1 through 48.
   • RSTP Admin Edge Port: An RSTP Admin Edge Port is a port set up to connect directly to devices like computers or printers. It skips the usual checks and starts forwarding data right away, helping the network work faster. You can enable or disable this feature using the toggle.
   • STP BPDU Guard: When enabled, this option turns off a port if it gets a Bridge Protocol Data Unit (BPDU) message preventing network loops. You can enable or disable this feature using the toggle.
   • STP Root Guard: STP Root Guard prevents a switch port from becoming a root port if it receives superior BPDUs, ensuring the designated root bridge remains the root. You can enable or disable this feature using the toggle.
   • DHCP Snooping Trust: A DHCP Snooping Trust port allows DHCP server responses to pass through, blocking rogue servers and ensuring only trusted ports can send DHCP messages and acknowledgments. You can enable or disable this feature using the toggle.
   • IPSG: IP Source Guard (IPSG) prevents IP spoofing by filtering traffic based on DHCP snooping or static IP bindings, allowing only authorized IP addresses. You can enable or disable this feature using the toggle.
   • LLDP QoS: LLDP QoS uses LLDP to advertise and negotiate QoS parameters between devices, ensuring correct traffic prioritization across the network. You can click Create to add LLDP QoS configurations to the port, including the Application Type, QoS VLAN Type, VLAN ID, Priority, and DSCP.
   • Ingress ACL: An Ingress ACL (IPv4) on a switch port filters incoming traffic based on criteria like IP addresses, protocols, or port numbers to enhance security. Select the criteria from the drop-down menu. You can click Add ACL to create and apply a configuration profile to the switch's venue to add or edit the Access Control List (ACL).
   • Egress ACL: An Egress ACL (IPv4) on a switch port filters outgoing traffic based on criteria like IP addresses, protocols, or port numbers to enhance security. Select the criteria from the drop-down menu. You can click Add ACL to create and apply a configuration profile to the switch's venue to add or edit the Access Control List (ACL).
   • Tags: Are used to manage and organize network traffic. Enter a tag value.
   • Cycle PoE: Click this button to off power and then back on to reset or troubleshoot connected devices.
7. After editing the port, click Save. For an uplink port, the Modify Uplink Port dialog box is displayed and prompts you to apply changes.
8. Click Apply Changes.
