Introduction

MAC Address

Displays the manufacturer-set MAC address associated with the IP Address used to define the device icon when it was added to NetSight Element Manager. This address is factory-set and cannot be altered.

Informational fields describing the boards and/or ports being modeled are also displayed in most windows:

Port Number

Displays the number of the monitored port.

Uptime

Displays the amount of time, in a X days hh:mm:ss format, that the FN100 has been running since the last start-up.

Using the Mouse

This document assumes you are using a Windows-compatible mouse with two buttons; if you are using a three button mouse, you should ignore the operation of the middle button when following procedures in this document. Procedures within the NetSight Element Manager document set refer to these buttons as follows:

Left Mouse Button

Right Mouse Button

Figure 1-2. Mouse Buttons

For many mouse operations, this document assumes that the left (primary) mouse button is to be used, and references to activating a menu or button will not include instructions about which mouse button to use.

However, in instances in which right (secondary) mouse button functionality is available, instructions will explicitly refer to right mouse button usage. Also, in situations where you may be switching between mouse buttons in the same area or window, instructions may also explicitly refer to both left and right mouse buttons.
