The Plasma Console does not allow enabling port isolation on the uplink port to prevent a misconfiguration. If cables are swapped, a previously isolated port may become the new uplink, triggering a warning message. A red triangle will appear next to the status icon of the affected device on the Switches table. Hovering over the triangle with the mouse cursor reveals the following warning message:
Resolution
To resolve the "Isolated Uplink" warning, click on the "Configure" button. This action will lead you directly to the Port details page of the isolated uplink. Once there, navigate to the Isolation section and set the toggle to Disabled.
Alternatively, follow these steps:
- Log into the Plasma Cloud console;
- Select the Organization and Network containing your Switch from the top right menu;
- Navigate to Switches in the main menu;
- Click on the Switch with the warning (identified by a red triangle in the status icon);
- Scroll down to the switch graphic and select the Port Isolation tab.
- Click on the Uplink port in the switch graphic, which is marked with a yellow frame, to remove the port isolation icon from the port as shown in the graphic above;
- Press save.
