Interface Naming Conventions
The switch supports physical and logical interfaces. Interfaces are identified by their type and
the interface number. For all models, the physical ports include eight Gigabit Ethernet ports
and two SFP fiber ports. The ports are numbered on the front panel. You configure the logical
interfaces by using the software.
The following table describes the naming convention for all interfaces available on the switch.

Interface Description Example
Physical The physical ports include gigabit ports and are numbered
sequentially starting from 1 using the following format: gY
.
g is for a 1G port and Y is the port number.
g1, g2, g8
