Rule Qualifier
There are several qualifiers used to describe a rule that determines which ports will be added to
the group. Each port group policy must contain exactly one rule qualifier (If no rules exist, no
ports can be chosen. More than one rule, on the other hand, will cause a conflict).
Table 20 - Port Group Qualifiers
Parameter Description Example
guid list Comma separated list of guids to include in
the group.
If no specific physical ports were configured,
all physical ports of the guid are chosen.
However, for each guid, one can detail spe-
cific physical ports to be included in the
group. This can be done using the following
syntax:
• Specify a specific port in a guid to be chosen
port-guid: 0x283@3
• Specify a specific list of ports in a guid to be
chosen
port-guid: 0x286@1/5/7
• Specify a specific range of ports in a guid to be
chosen
port-guid: 0x289@2-5
• Specify a list of specific ports and ports ranges
in a guid to be chosen
port-guid: 0x289@2-5/7/9-13/18
• Complex rule
port-guid: 0x283@5-8/12/14, 0x286, 0x289/6/
8/12
port-guid: 0x283,
0x286, 0x289
port guid range It is possible to configure a range of guids to
be chosen to the group. However, while using
the range qualifier, it is impossible to detail
specific physical ports.
Note: A list of ranges cannot be specified.
The below example is invalid and will cause
the policy to fail:
port-guid-range: 0x283-0x289, 0x290-0x295
port-guid-range:
0x283-0x289
