USER’S GUIDE		CHAPTER 3: SWITCH MANAGEMENT

	Command Button	Description

	Cancel	Cancels a request. This button is disabled until a configuration setting is
		changed or new information is entered. This button appears green to
		notify the user of a change to the switch configuration. Click this button
		to cancel the configuration change.

	Reboot	Resets the switch.

	Login/Logout	Logs in to and out of the switch.

	Refresh	Redraws the currently displayed Web page.

The expandable navigation menu provides several options for configuring and monitoring the switch. The menu uses a tree-based navigation structure with a list of menu options and items. Clicking a menu option with a "+" next to it expands the menu option and displays additional menu items. Clicking a menu item displays the selected Web Manager page.

To ensure that the most current information is displayed, use the navigation menu instead of the browser’s Back and Next buttons, which usually display cached copies and may not reflect current switch information.

To log out of the Web Manager, click Logout, or simply close the browser window.

Note: The Web Manager will automatically log users out after 15 minutes of inactivity, unless the Switch Information page is currently displayed. The Switch Information page automatically updates to display the most current switch status.
