This article explains how to create a port profile.


How to Create a Port Profile

Log in to Cumulus and navigate to Services > Infrastructure > Port Profiles.

Give your Profile a name, choose your carrier, and click save to the far right.

Now you are ready to edit the port profile you have created. This assigns the relevant service types that will be available against this port.

From the window below you will see a section below that lists the port profile map. This describes what ports have been mapped to this profile. The idea behind this is that a given port in theory could support multiple service types. Rather than create multiple ports for each service type, this mapping process let's you create one port that supports multiple service types. Go ahead and "Create New".

In the dropdown list on the next window, choose the port profile and the relevant service type. Then click Save. Go ahead and repeat the process for any other service types the port will support.
