Viewing a Switch Screen

To view a switch screen, follow this procedure:

Step Action

1Click on a node in the tree control.

2The screen associated with the node item is displayed in the right-hand frame of ASEM. If applicable, select a tab on this screen.

—End—

To provide visual cues about information in ASEM, the following display conventions are followed on all screens:

•Fields with italicized labels indicate values that take effect immediately after clicking the Set button. These ﬁelds do not need to be applied to update the conﬁguration.

•Fields that appear with a white background can be edited.

•Fields that appear with a gray background cannot be edited.

•Field text appears in bold when data is in the process of being entered or modiﬁed.

Undocking a Switch Screen

Any screen in the right-hand frame can be undocked from the frame. This feature is useful in instances such as when information must be compared between two or more switches, when conﬁguration data is being moved between switch conﬁguration screens or if a particular monitoring screen must be left open.

To undock a switch screen, perform the following task:

Step Action

1Right-click on the screen displayed in the right-hand frame.

2From the context menu, select the menu item Tear Off Panel.

—End—

The screen is now undocked. "Undocked Screen" (page 34) illustrates an example of an undocked screen.
