Front-Panel Images
You can manage the switch from a remote station by using the front-panel images. The front-panel
images are updated based on the network polling interval that you set from CMS > Preferences.
This section includes descriptions of the LED images. Similar descriptions of the switch LEDs are
provided in the switch hardware installation guide.
Note The Preferences window is not available if your switch access level is read-only. For more information
about the read-only access mode, see the “Access Modes in CMS” section on page 2-33.
Figure 2-5 shows the port icons as they appear in the front-panel images. To select a port, click the port
on the front-panel image. The port is then highlighted with a yellow outline. To select multiple ports,
you can:
• Press the left mouse button, drag the pointer over the group of ports that you want to select, and then
release the mouse button.
• Press the Ctrl key, and click the ports that you want to select.
• Right-click a port, and select Select All Ports from the port popup menu.
