SmartConnect User’s Guide

Configuration Window

When you choose a feature name from the menu area, the corresponding configuration con- trols are displayed in the configuration window. Depending on the selected feature, the config- uration window provides switch information or allows you to view and change the settings of the VSE SmartConnect software features.

If you use the configuration area to change the switch configuration, click on one of the but- tons at the bottom of the window, as follows:

Button

Description

 

 

Apply

When altering fields in the configuration area, your changes are “pend-

 

ing” and do not take effect until you click the Apply button. Once

 

applied, all configuration changes take effect on the switch immedi-

 

ately. However, if you do not also save the changes, they will be lost the

 

next time the switch is rebooted or whenever the Revert Apply com-

 

mand is given.

 

 

Save

Writes the applied configuration changes to non-volatile flash memory

 

on the switch so that the configuration is retained beyond reboot or

 

power cycles.

 

 

Revert Apply

Clears any unsaved configuration changes, whether applied or not. Use

 

this command to return all configuration fields to their last saved state.

 

 

Some configuration screens have other buttons (such as Delete, Clear, or Search). The func- tions of these controls are described in the sections detailing each configuration page.

Note – In some instances where multiple BBI and/or CLI sessions are simultaneously apply- ing and reverting configuration changes, the next use of the Apply, Save, or Revert Apply command may not function as expected unless another configuration item is updated.
