Logical Ports Assigned

This table displays the physical ports on the selected Host Ethernet Adapter (HEA), the logical port that the logical partition can use to access each physical port, and the virtual LANs that each logical port can access. When you activate a logical partition using a partition profile, the managed system configures logical ports for the logical partition based upon the specifications in the partition profile.

This table contains the following information for each physical port on the selected HEA whose resources are being used by this logical partition:

Physical Port Location Codes

This column displays the location code of each physical port.

Physical Port ID

This column displays the ID number of each physical port.

Port Group ID

This column displays the ID number of the port group to which each physical port belongs. Each HEA has one or two port groups, and each port group can have up to 16 logical ports.

Logical Port ID

This column displays the logical port ID number that is associated with each physical port. The combination of this number and the port group ID uniquely identifies each logical port for the selected HEA.

Allowed VLAN IDs

This column lists the ID numbers of the virtual LANs on which the logical port can participate. The logical port can accept packets with any of these virtual LAN IDs.
