You can also perform NE configuration tasks such as changing the NE host name, configuring SNMP
settings, adding and managing SNMP traps, and managing other NE server settings (DNS, NTP,
RADIUS, TACACs and so forth) using basic commands that are launched from right-click contextual
menus. The commands are described in Setting Up Devices and Validating Device Information,
page 1-4.
Step 1 To view general information about a network element, hover your mouse cursor over the NE icon, and
use the mouse scroll to zoom in and out.
