The EM also provides a unique feature that will allows the network operator to more efficiently configure the network by allowing all panel-level information to be copied from one panel to another. The Copy Panel and Paste Panel options under the Tools pull-down menu provide an easy mechanism to perform this task
If the Refresh Data option is checked, the EM will retrieve the latest information from the selected panels and before prompting the network operator to enter a filename and location where the information can be stored on the PC. After the panel-level information is saved, the operator is prompted as to whether port-level information should be stored in a separate file
