The Device View

2-54 Managing the Module

To activate the test:
1. Click on the Test button. The unit will begin its self-test. The results of the test
will appear in the Test Result text box next to the Test button.
Using the Disconnect Option
You can disconnect the UPS attached to your SmartSwitch 6000 or Matrix E7 through its
COM port, as follows:
1. Click on the Disconnect button near the bottom of the UPS window. Your
UPS will now be disconnected.
To reconnect, simply click on the OK button, or close, then re-open the UPS window.
Redirecting Traffic
The Port Redirect window (Figure2-19) allows you to redirect traffic from one or more
interfaces directly to another interface — essentially mirroring the traffic at the “redirect”
interface. This feature is useful in that it allows you to use an external analyzer on the
“redirect” port to analyze data, without disturbing the normal switching operations at the
original source ports. The Port Redirect window displays the interface remap table and
allows you to add new entries to and delete existing entries from this table. When you set
a source port to redirect to a destination port, the destination port will transmit out all
packets received or transmitted on the source port.
To access the Port Redirect window:
1. In the Chassis View window, select Device>Port Redirect (if you are
managing a single device) or Chassis>Port Redirect (if you are managing a
chassis with multiple modules). The Port Redirect window, Figure 2-19,
appears.
