Figure 1: EDM window
Device Physical View
When you access EDM, the first panel in the work area displays a switch summary view. The tab
behind the summary view is a real-time physical view of the front panel of a device or stack called
the Device Physical View.
Objects in the Device Physical View are
• a stand-alone switch, called a unit
• a switch stack, called a chassis
• a port
From the Device Physical View you can
• determine the hardware operating status
• select a switch or a port to perform management tasks on specific objects or view fault,
configuration, and performance information for specific objects
To select an object, click the object. The system outlines the object in yellow, indicating that the
object selected.
The conventions on the device view are similar to the actual switch appearance except that LEDs in
Device Physical View do not blink. The LEDs and the ports are color-coded to reflect hardware
status. Green indicates the port is up and running; red indicates that the port is disabled.
From the menu bar you can click the Device Physical View tab to open the Device Physical View
any time during a session.
