Clicking on an option in the Task List panel opens a configuration wizard.
Configuration wizards enable the configuration of basic settings for an
object. After configuring the settings and close the wizard, the new
object is added to a table in the Content panel for most types of WX
switch objects.
Some objects have advanced, infrequently modified settings that are not
configurable using the wizard. To configure advanced settings for an object
listed in a table in the Content panel, select the object, then click Properties.
The Properties button opens a configuration dialog containing all
configurable settings for the object, including the advanced settings.
For simple changes, select multiple objects and click Properties to make
the change for all of the selected objects. For example, to disable or
reenable multiple ports, select all of the ports, click Properties, change
the port state in the dialog, and then close the dialog. The changes take
effect on of all the selected ports.
3WXM does not automatically deploy switch configuration changes from
the network plan to the actual switches in the network. The following
options in the Task List panel allow you to review and deploy changes:
Review—Displays a categorized list of the undeployed changes.
Deploy—Sends the changes to the network.
Click Review to review undeployed configuration changes. Changes are
listed by feature category. To hide or redisplay a category, click on the
double arrow next to the category name.
A plus sign next to a configuration item indicates there are multiple
changes for that item. Click the plus sign to display the individual
changes.
To print the list of changes, click Print.
To deploy all of the changes, click Deploy. 3WXM compares the changes
to the verification rules, and lists any warnings or error messages. If there
are any errors, 3WXM will not deploy the changes. To deploy the
changes, you must first resolve the errors. To resolve configuration errors,
use the Verification option.
