Editable Fields

GUI pages allow you to enter values or select options through a range of field types. These include:

•text fields, to enter character strings or numbers, especially for fields where there are few limits on the entries (such as names). See the online help for valid characters and field length

•select lists, to select one option from a small number of possibilities. Only valid options are listed. For example, if you are asked to select an IP interface from a drop-down list, the only interfaces displayed will be those you have assigned an IP address to

•radio button lists, to choose one of a series of mutually-exclusive options

•checkboxes, to enable or disable features.

Ports Graphic

Pages on which you can select switch ports use a Ports graphic - a visual representation of the switch ports.To toggle through the selection options, click on the icon representing the port you want to select or deselect.
