Port Group Mapping
SmartPanel ports can be combined into Port Groups. Up to five Port Groups are available in the SmartPanel. A
Spare Ports Group is available for unused ports.
VLANs and Link Aggregation Groups (trunks) are configured automatically for each Port Group. No network loops
are allowed in the configuration. All external ports in the Port Group form a trunk group (static trunk or Link
Aggregation Group).
Port Group Characteristics
SmartPanel Port Groups must have the following characteristics.
• Each Port Group must contain at least one external port (20-24) and one internal server blade port (1-16).
• All external ports in a Port Group must have the same configuration.
• Each port in the Port Group is a member of a unique, untagged VLAN.
• Tagged VLANs (1-4094) can be assigned to each Port Group. Tagged VLANs cannot be configured across
multiple Port Groups.
• All external ports in the Port Group form a trunk group.
NOTE: Cross-connect ports (17-18) are not available in the SmartPanel.
Port Group configuration
On the BBI, choose Port Group Mapping to select the Port Group for each of the external ports and server blade
ports. Click Apply to make the changes active. Click Save to write the configuration to flash memory.
