Colorized Icon (Using Type Specific Icon)
This option configures the 6100 EMS to colorize the icons to indicate a state change (see
figure 30
). Because of
the complexity involved in determining state, ForeSight has internally defined icons for every state of every
node type (including containers and folders). ForeSight then displays the appropriate icon for each node, based
on its current state.

Note
Since a tree can only display one icon per node, the colorized icon
takes precedence over the user-defined icon.
Colorized Text Background
When this option is checked, the ForeSight 6100 will colorize the text background based on the state of the
network device (see
figure 31
). When this is not checked, no background color is used.
