Displaying the WAN Logical View

The WAN Logical View window displays information about the logical interfaces that comprise your physical WAN port. Although the WAN Logical View window has identical Þelds for the T1 and the Synchronous ports, the number of interface entries depends on the type of port. The Synchronous port will have a single interface entry; the T1 port will have 24 interface entries.

To open the WAN Logical View window:

1.Click on Device in the Chassis View menu bar to access the Device menu.

2.Click on WAN Status and Logical View. The WAN Logical View window, Figure 4-5, will appear.
