message: "Reboot for the changes to take effect."
4. You may reboot now if you have already set up the ports for DPA or
are otherwise prepared for the DPA mode to become effective.

opens (as shown in Port Configuration (on page 63)).

port number. You can select more than one. When you have
finished, click Edit.
 To select all the ports, click Select All.
The Edit Port Configuration page opens (as shown in Port
Configuration (on page 63)). The DPA fields are at the bottom of the
page.
