Clicking on an option in the Task List panel opens a configuration wizard.
Configuration wizards enable you to configure basic settings for an
object. For most types of WX switch objects, after you configure the
settings and close the wizard, the new object is added to a table in the
Content panel.
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, you can select multiple objects and click Properties
to make the change for all the selected objects. For example, to disable or
reenable multiple ports, you can select all the ports, click Properties,
change the port state in the dialog, then close the dialog. The changes
take effect on all the ports you selected.
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.
