If you miss-click and disable a port, you will see that quickly or a user will call you.  If you miss-click and freeze some ports, configuring things related to security (Policy, authentication etc. AFAIR) might come up much later and sometimes it's worse than having a port disabled.<BR /> The above was my try to justify the GUI. <span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":winking_face:">😉</span><BR /> <BR /> Kind regards,<BR /> Tomasz Wed, 03 Apr 2019 03:37:00 GMT https://community.extremenetworks.com/t5/extremecloud-iq-site-engine/xmc-8-2-x-set-port-frozen-disable-port/m-p/44009#M5817 Tomasz 2019-04-03T03:37:00Z
