Port Profile Port profiles provide a convenient way to save and share a port configuration. When a port profile, which is a set of CLI commands having a unique name, is applied to a port, the CLI commands contained within the profile (macro) are executed and added to the Running Configuration file. Port profiles can be applied to a specific interface, a range of interfaces, or globally. There are two types of port profiles: • User Defined - Enables the user to bundle configurations, as a port profile, and then apply it to one or more interfaces at a time. Up to 20 user-defined macros can be supported. These can only be defined through CLI commands. • Built-In - Pre-defined macros that cannot be changed or deleted. The device includes the following built-in macros: - Global - Desktop - Phone - Switch - Router - Wireless Configuration Before a built-in profile can be applied to an interface, the global profile must be applied. The global profile enables QoS Advanced mode, sets Advanced mode parameters, CoS to queue mapping, and DSCP to queue mapping and defines certain standard ACLs. Use the CLI command show parser macro name profile-global to display the Global profile contents. Dell PowerConnect 55xx Systems User Guide 391
