Figure 4-23. Interface Properties

Interface List Box

The list box at the top of the Interfaces page displays the

 

Topology, IfIndex, and Description of the contact interface on

 

the selected device.

Poll Settings

The Poll Settings box displays the polling parameters assigned

 

to the contact interface. Even though your managed device

 

may have multiple interfaces, it will only be actively polled on

 

a single interface (the first interface detected when the device

 

is contacted). See Configuring Node Interface Poll Settings,

 

page 4-34, for more information.

Properties

Selecting the Properties button launches an additional window

 

(see Figure 4-25, page 4-34) that allows you to view display

 

properties for the contact interface, and to configure poll

 

settings for the device. See Configuring Node Interface Poll

 

Settings, page 4-34, for more information.

Class Properties

The Class tabbed page (Figure ) displays the Model and Enterprise types assigned to the selected device, along with the large (32x32 pixel) and small (16x16 pixel) icons associated with these types. The specific model name of the selected device is also displayed. From this page, you can launch the Node Classes window (Figure 4-27, page 4-37), which allows you to select a different node class; and, via the Node Class Properties window (Figure 4-28, page 4-38), view and change specific parameters assigned to the selected class. You can also use the Node Class Properties window to select the management application that will be launched when the icon is double-clicked
