Viewing servers by name, EID, or port
You can view servers by name (default) by the unique EID embedded in each interface adapter or by the port.
Viewing the Port column
When the Main dialog box ("Accessing the Main dialog box" on page 28) is first launched, the servers are listed alphabetically by name. Press the Port button to list the servers numerically by their port numbers.
The Port column indicates the port to which a server is connected. For example, in the following screen shot, the first number represents the port number of the first console switch, the second number represents the port number of the secondary console switch, and the third number represents the tertiary console switch port to which the server is connected.
Viewing the server status column
The status of the servers in the console switch system is indicated by the icons in the right column of the Main dialog box ("Accessing the Main dialog box" on page 28).
