Opening a device 39

Device view

When a device is opened, Device Manager automatically determines what version of software the selected device is running; a picture of the device that represents its physical features appears.

"Device Manager window for a Metro Ethernet Routing Switch 8600 switch" (page 39) shows this window for the Metro Ethernet Routing Switch 8600, "Device Manager window for a Metro ESU 1800 switch" (page 40) shows it for the Metro ESU 1800, and "Device Manager window for a Metro ESU 1800 switch" (page 40) shows it for the Metro ESU 1850.

For information about connecting to the switch using SNMPv3, refer to Managing Network Operations (315545-E) and Conﬁguring and Managing Security (314724-E).
