the product icon representing the director for which the port is to
be blocked, then select Element Manager from the pop-up menu.
The application opens.

director displays.
5. Move the cursor over the port card to be blocked and right-click
the mouse to open a list of menu options.
6. Select the Block All Ports menu option. A Warning dialog box
