the Source Port [n] and Destination Port [n] fields.
NEXT/PREVIOUS (Navigation Field)
There can be more than one Port Redirect Function screen depending on
the number of port redirect entries. To get to the second or subsequent
screens, there is a NEXT field at the bottom of the screen that the user can
arrow key over to and highlight. Pressing the ENTER key displays the
next screen. In the new screen, the navigation field PREVIOUS will
display to allow the user to go back to the first or previous screens.

Add or delete source port and destination port entries as follows:
1. Use the arrow keys to highlight the Source Port field.
2. Press the SPACE bar or BACKSPACE one or more times to increment
or decrement the port number displayed in the brackets [n] until the
appropriate port number is displayed.
3. Use the arrow keys to highlight the Destination Port field.
4. Use the SPACE bar or BACKSPACE to step to the appropriate port
number for the destination port.
5. Use the arrow keys to highlight the Errors field.
6. Use the SPACE bar to select either the ON or OFF option and press
ENTER. ON forces the source module and port to forward errored
frames to the destination module(s) and port(s). OFF forces the
errored frames to be dropped before forwarding traffic.
