## Customize names of detected ports
21
21
22
-
Customize the name of a port detected by Defender for IoT when you want to highlight it for some reason, such as because there's unusually high activity detected.
22

Defender for IoT automatically assigns names to most universally reserved ports, such as DHCP or HTTP. However, you might want to customize the name of specific port to highlight it, such as when you're watching a port with unusually high activity detected.

Port names are shown in Defender for IoT when viewing device groups from the OT sensor's device map, or when you create OT sensor reports that include port information. Defender for IoT automatically assigns names to most universally reserved ports, such as DHCP or HTTP.

VLANS are either discovered automatically by the sensor or added manually. Automatically discovered VLANs can't be edited or deleted, but manually added VLANs require a unique name. If not named, the number of the VLAN will appear in the reports instead.
