Hi All, I have looked all over for where to find autoports and I can not. Can anyone give me a hint?

For your patch panel (object type 9) you may want: 9=24*24*Port %02u That will create 24 ports of type 24 (gigabit ethernet), called "port 00" to "port 23", every time you create a Patch Panel. I usually just rename port 0 to port 24 and I'm done.
