Adding to or Deleting From the Device Selection List
To add a device(s) to the device selection list, choose Add to Selection(s) and
add devices using the Selection Browser window. The selection list will be
changed to add any devices selected via the Selection Browser that were not
already in the list. When you choose OK or Cancel, the window with the Device
Selection List is displayed.
To delete from the device selection list, select the device(s) (see Figure A-1) to be
removed from the list, then choose Remove Selection(s). The specified devices
are removed from the device selection list.
To clear all devices from the device selection list (see Figure A-1), choose Clear
Selection. The device selection list is now empty.
Selection Browser
The Selection Browser is a dialog box that enables you to browse through a list of
possible device names and to select one or more devices. The browser provides
you with the capability of creating a device selection list to use within various
applications. The initial Selection Browser window is shown in Figure A-2.
Figure A-2. Initial Selection Browser Window
The Selection Browser window consists of a Primary Category field and,
depending upon the category selected, various other hierarchical categories
displayed below.
Each one of these categories corresponds to a different browser window. That is,
under each category name is a browser list of elements that exist in the network
for that category.
For example, if the default category Sites is selected for the Primary Category
field, all the sites in the network are then listed under the Sites category. If Site 1
is selected, it appears in reverse video, and all the cabinets, carriers and devices
located at Site 1 are listed in their appropriate categories.
