# Add/EditPort You can add ports to a VPC for other instances to use. * On the **Network** page, click the **Edit** button.

* On the **Edit** page, several tabs are available cick the **Ports** tab, then click the **Add Port** button to add a new port.

* The Add VPC Port window appears, with three columns that you must fill in.

Column	Description
Name	Port name used. The minimum name length is 5 characters.
IP Address	IP address used. For example, if the IP address on the network that uses a class C IP address is 198.18.1.0/24, then you must fill in the IP Address column with the host address starting from 198.18.1.2 to a maximum of 192.18.1 254.
MAC Address	A unique address used to identify a device. This column is optional to fill in, because when you add a port your port automatically gets a MAC Address.
Port Security	Two options are available: a.Enabled can be directly used by Instances b.Disabled is available in the VPC Port list but cannot be used by the Instance.

* After filling in all the columns, the next step is to press the Add button to continue the process of adding ports to the VPC.

* A notification **"port has been successfully added"** appears and the port is available in the VPC Port list.

* To be able to update the data used by the port on the VPC Details page, press the More button and select Edit.

* You can only change the port configuration that has been added to VPC Ports, namely Name and Port Security.
