Viewing Order Log
You can track the status of your port orders and other actions:
- Navigate to the Order Log tab: This is located on the left side of the page.
- Review Records: Here, you will find a detailed record of all actions performed, including:
- Ordering new ports

Active and ready for use. Connections can then be established on these ports.
