Abstract

A multi-port configuration system includes a network switch including a plurality of ports and a user device that is configured to couple to the network switch. Each of the plurality of ports is configured to operate in at least one of a plurality of modes. A congruent graphical representation of the network switch is displayed on the user device, and a selection of a group of ports of the plurality of ports is received. Based on the received selection of the group of ports, available configuration settings for the group of ports are displayed on the user device. A configuration settings selection, selected from the available configuration settings, for configuring the group of ports is received. The configuration settings selection is provided to the network switch to configure the group of ports.
