CWI Desktop Window

The CWI Desktop is the main point of access to all CWI applications and tools, allowing you to configure, monitor, and manage routers (see Figure 8).

The CWI Desktop is designed with common elements that provide an easy-to-use and consistent user interface. The elements of the CWI Desktop window are described in Table 10.
