Chapter 3. Administration
17
The Main Page
The Main page governs port access. Selecting a port and double-clicking it
switches you to the device on that port.
A
monitor
icon is in front of the port number. The monitor icon is green
for ports that have devices connected to them that are powered on;
otherwise, it is gray.
If a port has been specified as a Quick View port (see below), an
eye
icon
is displayed along with the monitor icon to indicate so.
In addition to using this page to select ports to switch to, the administrator can
also use this page to enable/disable Quick View status for selected ports, and
to create, modify, or delete names for each of the ports. The following sections
describe how to enable Quick View and how to assign names to ports.
Quick View Ports
Selecting certain ports as Quick View ports is a way of limiting which ports are
included when the KN9108 / KN9116 is in Auto Scan mode. If the KN9108 /
KN9116 is configured to only auto scan ports that have Quick View status (see
, page 72), designating a port as a Quick View port in this dialog
box means that it will be included when auto scanning is in effect.
The spacebar toggles a port's Quick View status. To select/deselect a port,
highlight it and press the
spacebar
. When a port has been selected as a Quick
View port, an
eye
icon displays in the port icon column to indicate so. When a
port isn't selected, there are no
eye
icons in the column.
