HP and Cisco UCS Blade Chassis Configuration (Port Group Management)
The KX III supports the aggregation of ports connected to certain types
of blades into a group representing the blade chassis. Specifically,

blades when the Dell PowerEdge 1855/1955 is connected from each
individual blade to a port on the KX III.
The chassis is identified by a Port Group Name and the group is
designated as a Blade Server Group on the Port Group Management
page. Port Groups consist solely of ports configured as standard KVM
ports, not ports configured as blade chassis. A port may only be a
member of a single group.
Ports connected to integrated KVM modules in a blade chassis are
configured as blade chassis subtypes. These ports are eligible to be
included in port groups.
When KX III ports are connected to integrated KVM modules in a blade
chassis and not to individual blades, the ports are configured as blade
chassis subtypes. These ports are not eligible to be included in port
groups and will not appear in the Select Port for Group, Available list.
If a standard KVM port has been included in a port group, and then is
subsequently repurposed for use as a blade chassis subtype, it must first
be removed from the port group.
Port Groups are restored using the Backup and Restore option.
To add a port group:
1. Click Device Settings > Port Group Management to open the Port
Group Management page.
2. Click Add to open the Port Group page.
3. Enter a Port Group Name. The port group name is not case sensitive
and can contain up to 32 characters.
