Alarms
The alarm panel in Equipment Details
displays alarms connected to the selected
equipment. You can right-click these and
Acknowledge, Clear
,
or Email the selected
alarm. You can also Assign User and Share
with User.
Hover the cursor over an alarm and a
popup appears with that alarm’s details
just as described in Alarms on page 99.
Ports
This displays the equipment’s ports. If you hover
the cursor over a port, you can also see the Port
Type (for example, Fast Ethernet, T1, and so
on), Name (port identifier), and Operational
Type (Up, Down). A column in the summary
portlet lists what Equipment the port belongs to.
The Expanded portlet displays snap panels and
additional columns for Encapsulation, IP
Address, Subnet Mask, Port Description, 8
Date Created.
Tip
If the Ports portlet is on the same page as the Managed Resources Proscan portlet, selecting a device in
Managed Resources makes its ports appear in the Ports portlet. These can get out of sync, but clicking
the browser’s
Refresh
restores the correspondence between a selected device and the ports displayed.
You can also add Links to ports with the right-click menu. (See Ports > Links). Existing links
appear in the
Reference Tree
snap-in for the selected port in the Expanded Ports portlet. Other
snap-ins display port information and any learned MAC address(es) for the port.
Right-clicking a listed port produces a menu with the following items:
Edit, Details, Visualize,
Event Management, Links, Performance and View as PDF
.
See Ports on page 191 for more about a
portlet exclusively for ports, and Port Editor on page 194 for information about editing them.
NOTE:
To resync a port, resync the device that contains it.
