You can save changes made to the polling window as defaults. After you have saved a polling configuration as a default it will be used as the polling interval each time you open the window while the Use Defaults option is selected. These update intervals will replace your current default values. To save your changes as defaults for all your Token Ring Management Modules:
1.Change the Polling Intervals as necessary (follow the steps in the section above).
2.Select the Save as Defaults option.
3.Click mouse button 1 on to save the changes you have made to the window. The polling intervals you have entered will now be used as the default values for all Token Ring Management Modules.
If you have made changes to the Polling Interval window, but have not saved them as defaults, you can revert to the default values by selecting the Use Defaults option. If you leave this option selected, the window will appear with the default values each time you open the window. Use the following steps to activate this option:
1.Select the Use Defaults option from the Polling Intervals window.
2.Click mouse button 1 on to save the Use Defaults option. Subsequent openings of the Polling Interval window will use default values.
