Configuring normalized interface per-platform mapping rules

Configuring normalized interface per-platform mapping rules

You can edit per-platform mapping rules in normalized interfaces.

When you change mapping rules, the object is modified, and the status for any policy package that uses the modified object changes to Modified on the Device Manager pane. You must reinstall the affected policy packages again to provide the changes to the device.

To configure per-platform mapping rules:
  1. Go to Policy & Objects > Normalized Interface.

  2. In the content pane, right-click a normalized interface, and select Edit.

    The Edit Normalized Interface pane appears.

  3. In the Per-Platform Mapping table, right-click a mapped device, and select Edit or click Create New to create a new rule.

    Edit or Delete Per-Platform Mapping

  4. Configure the options, and click OK. The mapping rule is saved.

    Note

    The Mapped Interface Name fields supports metadata variables. See ADOM-level metadata variables.

    This field does not currently support the metadata variable selection window, but you can enter the variable manually using the following format: $(variable_name).

  5. Click OK. The normalized interface is saved.
