Editing Node Class Properties

NetSight Element Manager classifies devices according to what is called a Node Class. In the Node Classes window (Figure 4-27), the properties associated with each node class (model, icon, class, etc.) are displayed in column format. This information can be sorted in forward or reverse order by column, as in your list views, by clicking on the column heading you want the nodes sorted by.

To access the Node Classes window:

1.Open the appropriate device Properties window by selecting the node in any view, and selecting Edit—>Propertiesfrom the primary window menu bar,

clicking the Properties icon, or selecting Properties from the right-mouse menu.

2.Click the Class tab to display the Class tabbed page, then click the Node Classes button.

The Node Classes window allows you to view the symbols used to represent various nodes and their functional properties; you can edit these default symbol sets or create entirely new ones via the Node Class Properties window.
