Figure 1.3: DS Topology Tree
To display the DS topology view:
1. In the DSView management software window, double-click on Topology.
2. Each name or IP address listed below Topology may be expanded by double-clicking on it.
This will display the ports for the DS appliance corresponding to that address. Each of these ports
shares the DS appliance’s IP address.
If a target device is attached to a port, the properties of that port will be the same as the properties
of the target device.
If a Keyboard/Video/Mouse (KVM) switch is attached to one or more of these ports, double-
clicking on the port name will display the channels on that KVM switch.
NOTE: You may also display the topology tree by clicking the Topology Tree toolbar icon.
