LRE Profiles Window
This window is only available for LRE switches. It appears when you choose
Device > LRE Profiles on the menu bar. You can also click here
to launch it.
Begin by selecting a Long-Reach Ethernet (LRE) switch from the Host Name
list, and information about the profile in effect appears. You then can:
This window displays the active profile and its settings. The default
active profile for all LRE ports is the LRE-10 private profile.
If a public profile is active, Public Mode is selected, and both the
Public Profile Setting and Private Profile Setting tabs appear.
Click the Public Profile Setting tab or click Public Mode to display
the public profile associated with the switch.
If a private profile is active, Private Mode is selected, and only
the Private Profile Setting tab appears. Click the Private Profile
Setting tab or click Private Mode to display the private profiles
associated with the LRE ports.
To change the active profile:
- If you want the public profile settings to be active, click Public Mode.
If you want the private profile settings to be active, click Private Mode.
- Click either:
- OK to put the change in effect and to close
this window.
- Apply to put the change in effect and to keep this
window open so that you can select another LRE switch from the Host
Name list and change its profile settings.
The switch resets the ports with the updated private profile settings.
Public profiles are set on a switch-wide (global) basis. The public profile
you select should be compatible with the PSTN to which the LRE switch is connected.
To change the public profile setting of the LRE ports:
- Click Public Mode, and click the Public Profile Setting tab.
If Public Mode is already selected, click the Public Profile Setting
tab.
Note: If Private Mode is selected, the Public Profile Setting
tab is disabled (does not appear). You must click Public Mode to display
the Public Profile Setting tab.
- From the Profile Name list, select the public profile that you want
to assign to the switch (all LRE ports). When selected, the line speeds provisioned
by the selected profile appear.
- Click either:
- OK to put the changes to the public profile
settings in effect, to make the public mode active, and to close the window.
- Apply to put the changes to the public profile settings
in effect, to make the public mode active, and to keep the window open
so that you can select another LRE switch from the Host Name list
and change its profile settings.
Note: Clicking Cancel from the LRE Profiles window erases
any changes to the public profile settings.
The switch resets the ports with the updated public profile settings. The public
profile settings are immediately put in effect, and the public mode automatically
becomes the active mode.
Note: Public profiles have priority over private profiles. If you assign
a public profile to the switch, the switch ignores any assigned private profiles.
To make the private profile mode active, see Changing
the Active Profile Mode.
To change the private profile setting of
one or more LRE ports on the switch:
- Click either Private Mode or the Private Profile Setting
tab.
Note: The Private Profile Setting tab appears whether Public
Mode or Private Mode is selected.
- From the Private Profile Setting tab, choose one or more ports.
To choose several ports, hold down the Ctrl key and make your choices,
or hold down the Shift key and choose the first and last port in a
range.
- Click Profile Setting to display the Profile Settings window from
which you can change the setting.
Note: Changes to the private profile settings are not put in
effect until you make the private mode the active mode. See Changing
the Active Profile Mode.
