Explanation
All
This is the default view. With no other filter options selected,
all of the ports that are accessible to the user are listed in the
Sidebar.
If any
Favorites
have been specified (see page 113), you can
drop down the list box and select Favorites instead of All. If
you select Favorites, only the items you have selected as
Favorites display in the tree.
Powered On
If you enable
Powered On
(by putting a check in the
checkbox) only the ports that have their attached devices
powered on display in the tree.
Search
If you key in a search string and click
Search
, only port names
that match the search string display in the tree. Wildcards (?
for single characters; * for multiple characters) and the
keyword
or

show up in the list.
For example:
1. If you key in
Web*
, both Web Server 1 and Web Server 2
show up in the list.
2. If you key in
W*1 or M*2
, both Web Server 1 and Mail
Server 2 show up in the list.
