Element Description
Physical Interfaces tab The physical interfaces that are available on the device. You can edit
these interfaces only (select the device and click the Edit Row button);

correct list of physical interfaces, for example, if you add an interface
card to the device.
The columns displayed on the tab show the configuration of each
interface and are explained in Modify Physical Interface Map Dialog
Box, page 36-11. Note that the Administrative State column indicates
whether the interface is enabled (Yes or No); you must enable an
interface for it to function.
