Add/Remove Port Channel Tags (Datacenter)

You can add tags to aggregated logical interfaces (port channels) and use them for configuration.

Update Tags on One Port Channel (Topology Neighbors View)

To update tags on a single port channel from the Topology Neighbors view using the GUI:
  1. From the blueprint, navigate to Staged > Physical > Topology and select the leaf with the port channel to tag. In our example, we've selected leaf1.

Spine nodes spine1 and spine2 connect to leaf nodes leaf1, leaf2, and leaf3, which link to servers and switches. Tabs like Staged and navigation options like Physical and Virtual are visible for managing network states and configurations.
    The Topology Selection view appears.
  2. From the Neighbors view (default view), select the interface check box to see the operations available for that interface (and that you have permissions for).

  3. Click Edit Port Channel tags.
    The Add/Remove Tags dialog opens.
  4. Add and/or remove tags, as needed. You can create tags from here; they'll be tagged to the link and added to the blueprint catalog.
    User interface for adding or removing tags with input field, existing tag with delete option, arrows indicating actions, message about untagged items, affected item list and Add/Remove Tags button.
  5. Click Add/Remove Tags.
The updates are staged and you're returned to the topology selection view.

When you're ready to activate your changes, go to the Uncommitted tab to review and commit (or discard) your changes.
