As an admin user, you can override a specific set of switch port configuration parameters at the switch level, giving you greater control over individual port settings. These overrides are appended to the existing port configuration and can be applied to one or more switch ports.

Note that "Port overrides" feature is not permitted for ports that use dynamic port configuration.

There may be ports configured already with a given port profile but which, for some reason, any specific parameters needs to changed. For example: MAC limit, speed, PoE etc...

To apply the override parameters at the switch level:

1. Click Switches and then select the switch to open the switch details page.

2. Navigate to Port tile.

3. On the Port tile, expand the Port Overrides section. The Port Overrides section is visible only if at least one port profile configuration exists.

4. Click Override Port Configuration.

5. Specify the port IDs for which you want to configure the override parameters.

6. Select the parameters that you wish to override by checking the corresponding boxes.

7. Configure the selected parameters and then click the check mark (✓) on the right of the Add Port Overrides window.

You can override the following parameters: Port Status, PoE, Speed, Duplex, MAC Limit, Port Description.

8. Click Save on the upper right of the switch details page to save the configuration.

Once applied, port overrides can be viewed in the Switch Ports section on the switch Insights page.
