Introduction
MAC Address
Displays the manufacturer-set MAC address of the device interface. This address
is factory-set and cannot be altered.
Using Window Buttons
The Cancel button that appears at the bottom of most windows allows you to exit
a window and terminate any unsaved changes you have made. You may also
have to use this button to close a window after you have made any necessary
changes and set them by clicking on an OK, Set, or Apply button.
An OK, Set, or Apply button appears in windows that have configurable values;
it allows you to confirm and SET changes you have made to those values. In some
windows, you may have to use this button to confirm each individual set; in other
windows, you can set several values at once and confirm the sets with one click
on the button.
The Help button brings up a Help text box with information specific to the
current window. For more information concerning Help buttons, see Getting
Help, page 1-5.
The command buttons, for example Bridge, call up a menu listing the windows,
screens, or commands available for that topic.
Any menu topic followed by ... (three dots) — for example Statistics... — calls up
a window or screen associated with that topic.
Getting Help
This section describes different methods of getting help for questions or concerns
you may have while using NetSight Element Manager.
Using On-Line Help
You can use the Gator Module window Help buttons to obtain information
specific to the device. When you click on a Help button, a window will appear
which contains context-sensitive on-screen documentation that will assist you in
the use of the windows and their associated command and menu options. Note
that if a Help button is grayed out, on-line help has not yet been implemented for
the associated window.
From the Help menu accessed from the Module View window menu bar, you can
access on-line Help specific to the Module View window, as well as bring up the
Chassis Manager window for reference. Refer to Chapter 2, The Gator Module
View, for information on the Module View and Chassis Manager windows.
