Figure 0-3  MeetingPlace Port Groups Configuration Tab 
Some of the information for individual ports is also included in the port 
group definition. You do not have to provide this information twice when a 
port is a member of a port group. (Group information has precedence over 
individual port information.) 
The configuration information you enter to define a port group, which 
includes a port access type, applies by default to all ports that are assigned to 
the group in the absence of individual port configuration information or a 
DID access plan. Table 0-1 explains the port groups.
