TCP/UDP Port Alias Introduction

When you create a security policy and add rules for TCP or UDP protocols, a source port and destination port are specified. You can enter port numbers or you can create aliases ahead of time that can be entered instead of the port numbers. For example, you could create an alias with name SSH and a value of 22.

From the left navigation menu, navigate to Design > TCP/UDP Ports to go to TCP/UDP ports. You can create, clone, edit and delete port aliases.

HPE Apstra interface showing the Design menu expanded with the TCP/UDP Ports section. A table displays one port alias entry labeled example, value 1025, and actions Edit, Clone, Delete. A Create Port Alias button is in the top-right corner.
