Accessing the MWTM through a Web Browser

Menu Command

Description

 

 

Tools > CiscoWorks > CiscoView

Links to CiscoView, which provides a real-time,

(Ctrl-3)

color-coded, graphical representation of Cisco objects.

 

You can use CiscoView to quickly identify an incorrect

 

status on a port or interface.

 

This option is dimmed if the selected node is not an

 

ITP or RAN-O node, or in Unmanaged status or has a

 

Device Type of Unknown. (CiscoWorks cannot

 

monitor Unmanaged or Unknown nodes or nodes that

 

are not ITP or RAN-O nodes.)

 

This option is not visible if you did not specify a

 

CiscoWorks server during installation. See the

 

“Installing MWTM on Solaris” and “Installing

 

MWTM on Windows” chapters of the Installation

 

Guide for the Cisco Mobile Wireless Transport

 

Manager 6.0 for more information.

1.In the UNIX environment (Solaris or Linux), this key combination can be mapped to a different function based on the Common Desktop Environment (CDE) that a user might have. For example, in Solaris CDE, Alt-Left Arrow and Alt-Right Arrow combinations are typically mapped to move back and forward through the different desktops. To remap the keys for use with the MWTM, see your UNIX Desktop Environment guide.

Accessing the MWTM through a Web Browser

You can manage network nodes through one of two graphical user interfaces:

MWTM client interface—The standard interface for accessing MWTM data. (This interface is described in Displaying the MWTM Main Window, page 4-22.)

MWTM web interface—A browser interface for accessing MWTM data. (This interface is introduced here and fully described in Chapter 11, “Accessing Data from the Web Interface.”)

A comparison of the GUI features supported in each interface is shown in this matrix:
