Step 3: ETM® System Configuration
For most Card configuration tasks, you can configure either a single Card or
multiple Cards at once, while a few configuration settings are unique to
each Card:
All of the tabs on the
Card Configuration
dialog box and
Multi-
Card Configuration
dialog box except the
Card
tab are identical.
When multiple Cards in one or more Appliances will have the same
settings for these items, you can configure all of them at once using the
Multi
-
Card
Configuration
dialog box.
The
Card
tab appears only on the (single)
Card
Configuration
dialog box and contains Card-specific settings, including the name, IP
address, and Span license key (if applicable). These items must be set
individually per Card.
The
General
tab appears only the
Multi-Card Configuration
dialog
box and contains the name of each of the selected Cards.

In the
Platform

subtree, right-click the

Select multiple Cards as follows:
To select multiple adjacent Cards:
–

dialog box:
This button indicates a configuration item is set the same for all
selected Cards and the field is editable.
This button indicates a configuration item is not currently set the
same for all selected Cards, and the field is grayed out. If you want to set
the item the same for all selected Cards, click the button to enable the field
to be edited.
