Information About Port Profile Inheritance
You can apply the configuration from an existing port profile as the default configuration for another port profile. This process is called inheritance. The configuration of the parent port profile is copied to and stored in the child port profile. You can also override the inheritance by configuring the attributes explicitly in the child port profile.
The following table lists the port profile inheritance settings.
