Viewing Catalyst Summary Information
At any time, you can also redisco ver the configurations of devices that you are already managing with
Security Manager. Be aware, however, that we do not recommend rediscovery generally because
performing rediscovery overwrites the policies that you have defined in Security Manager. For more
information, see Discovering Policies on Devices Already in Security Manager, page5-15.
Note We recommend that you perform deployment immediately after you discover policies, before you make
any changes to policies or unassign policies from the device. (This recommendation also applies to any
services module or security context hosted by the device.) Otherwise, the changes that you configure in
Security Manager might not be deployed to the device. See Working with Deployment and the
Configuration Archive, page 8-26.

To view Catalyst summary information, in Device view, right-click a Catalyst switch or Cisco 7600
Series router, then select Catalyst Summary Info, or select Tools > Catalyst Summary Info.
Note If Security Manager has not completed discovery for a particular Cisco Catalyst switch or Cisco 7600
Series router, the Catalyst Summary Info page for that device displays this message: “No information is
