About the Device and Interface Profiles Page

Tasks You Can Perform

• View details of device and interface profiles—The Profiles table displays the various parameters of the configured device and interface profiles. See Table 1.

• Add labels; see Add Labels.

• Add a device profile; see Add a Device Profile.

• Add a port profile; see Add a Port Profile.

• Add an interface profile; see Add an Interface Profile.

• Add tags—A tag is a label in the key:value format that you add to a network implementation plan so that you can group plans. For example, you can assign the tag type:PE to all plans associated with devices deployed as provider edge devices.

  Tags applied to profiles are automatically inherited by the devices, interfaces, and ports associated with those profiles.

  To add one or more tags to a profile:

  1. Click More > Add Tags.

     The Manage Tags page appears.

  2. In the Tags field, select a tag to be applied from the drop-down list.

     Alternatively, you can also create a tag by clicking the Create New Tag link at the bottom of the page and apply the new tag. If you are creating a tag, ensure that:

     • The key starts with a letter and is followed by letters, numbers, periods (.), hyphens (-), or underscores (_), and is between 1 and 200 characters long.

     • The value includes alphanumeric characters, periods (.), hyphens (-), and underscores (_), and is between 1 and 200 characters long.

  You can view all the tags applied to a profile in the Tags column.

• Edit and delete device, interface, and port profiles; see Edit and Delete a Label or Profile.

• Search by using keywords—Click the search icon (magnifying glass), enter the search term in the text box, and press Enter. The search results are displayed on the same page.

• Filter the data displayed in the table—Click the filter icon (funnel) and select whether you want to show or hide advanced filters. You can then add or remove filter criteria, save criteria as a filter, apply or clear filters, and so on. The filtered results are displayed on the same page.

• Show or hide columns in the table or reset page preferences, using the vertical ellipsis menu.

• Sort, resize, or re-arrange columns in a table (grid).

• Set the number of rows to be displayed in the table—Set the number of rows (15, 30, 50, or 100) to be displayed in the Network Implementation Plan table in the Display drop-down list provided at the bottom right-corner of the table.

  If there are multiple pages of rows, use the arrow heads to traverse through the pages or enter a page number to view the entries listed on that page.

Table 1: Fields on the Device and Interface Profiles Page

Field	Description
Type	Label or type of profile—Device, Interface, or port. A label is a keyword for referencing a group of devices.
Name	Name of the label or profile.
Plan Name	Name of the network implementation plan to which the profile is assigned. A network implementation plan defines the assignment of device and interface profiles to one or more devices.
Protocols	Protocols configured in the profile. By default, this column lists two protocols configured in the profile. If you configure more than two protocols, a +integer (for example, +2) appears to the right of the protocol. The integer indicates the total number of protocols configured in the profile. Click the integer to view all the protocols defined in the profile.
Labels	Labels assigned to the profile.
Tags	Tags assigned to the profile. A profile inherits tags from its associated network implementation plan, in addition to any tags that are manually assigned. If more than one tag is assigned to the profile, a numeric indicator (for example, +2) appears next to the displayed tag in the Tags column. 2 here indicates that two additional tags are associated with the profile beyond the one currently shown. Hover over the indicator to view the additional tags assigned to the profile.
