MX68 Port Labeling

[HalfPint]

Are there plans to allow port labeling on these smaller firewall appliances? I just got a couple MX68's and would love to be able to label each port and what the endpoint device is. It would be nice to be able to hover over the ports and have it display "Port 11 - Device XYZ" etc

You could add a section here under Addressing & VLAN where you could add a small "description" field

Cheers,

As far as I'm aware it's not roadmapped.

There are a number of limitations of MX ports vs MS ports, including setting names and identifying what is connected to it.

Today that is not an option. Hopefully one day it will be. What I always do with MX’s is use the notes field to list out the port mappings for both the WAN and LAN ports. I know it’s not exactly what you’re seeking, but it at least gets some information in there which can hopefully be helpful to admins.

This is actually a must for us, as is the individual port level configuration.

Unfortunately I have ordered 3 MX68s without realizing this limitation, so I need to come up some use for them and use our standardized MX67 + MS-switches to guarentee security and configurability. 

Still searching for MX68 port level VLAN configuration information..

For the firewalls, I just use the Notes field and put in the port info. i.e.

p01.w01: Comcast #xxx
p02.w02: Verizon #xxx
