Eclipse™ 2640 SAN Router Administration and Configuration Manual
Tips on using the Element Manager
1. Select
Internet Options
under the
Tools
menu in Microsoft®
Internet Explorer.
2. Click the
Advanced
tab.
3. Under
Browsing
, disable
Enable third-party browser extensions
, if
enabled.
4. Restart your computer.
The Windows XP Service Pack 2 provides the ability to individually
enable or disable an extension (now called an add-on) in Internet
Explorer without entirely disabling third-party extension support.
The FireFox 1.0 browser also supports this feature.
Using Configuration Dialog Boxes
Selecting an option displays a dialog box where you can modify
configuration data. Click
OK
or
Apply
in each dialog box to save the
changes.
Apply
sets the changes to the SAN Router. The changes are stored in
memory only on the SAN Router, not to flash.
OK
is similar to
Apply
but also dismisses the dialog box after setting the configuration
parameters. Pressing
F5
will force a refresh of the dialog box. Any
uncommitted changes will be lost.
To permanently save your changes to the runtime configuration, you
must choose
Save Configuration
from the
File
tab.
This saves the currently running configuration to flash memory.
Whenever you choose
Reset System
from the
File
tab, the
configuration in flash is restored to the SAN Router.
NOTE:
If the configuration has not been saved to flash, a red diskette icon
appears in the bottom left corner of the Device View with a message that
changes are not saved to flash (
Figure 2-2 on page 2-9). A green icon indicates
changes have been saved.
