  4. The View panel enables users to select their preferred view options. The UI interface provides Expand All and Collapse All options for managing the view. By default, the system collapses all settings.
  5. The Sort drop-down menu on the right side of the page allows users to select from two sort options: Sort by category and Sort by segment aware. Users can view the configuration settings sorted by category or segment-aware. By default, the settings are sorted by category. If the administrator chooses to sort by segmentation, the system groups the settings into segment-aware and segment-agnostic categories.
  6. Configure the required settings then select Save Changes.
    Note: On the Device page, whenever users make configuration changes for the selected Profile, a footer notification appears at the bottom left corner of the screen. Select the notification to view the recent configuration changes.

    • Duplicate Profile - Selecting this option opens a Copy Profile dialog box that allows to create a duplicate of the selected Profile.
    • Modify Profile - Selecting this option navigates to the Overview page of the selected profile, where users can edit the properties of that Profile.
    • Delete Profile - Selecting this option opens a Delete Profile dialog box that allows to delete the selected Profile. Users cannot delete the Profiles that are associated with Edges.

    For additional details on various Profile configuration settings, see Configure a Profile Device.

  3. Default Local Credentials are set to a random password by the Orchestrator. Users can change the random password by selecting the EDIT button, then selecting Change Password. Enter the new password and select SUBMIT.
    Note:
    • Ensure the new password meets the following password policy criteria:
      • Should be at least 8 characters
      • Should be less than 32 characters
      • Should have at least one number
      • Should have at least one lowercase character
    • Starting from the 4.5 release, Orchestrator no longer supports the use of the special character ">" in passwords. In cases where users have already used ">" in their passwords in previous releases, they must remove it to save any changes on the page.
  4. The Profile Overview section displays the Edge models enabled for the profile, the network services configured for the profile, and the segment configuration details assigned to the profile. For additional information, see Configure Profiles.
