NetXtreme User Guide

Context View Selector

The Context View selector appears below the menu bar and includes the filter and tab categories. Although you
can expand and collapse the categories that appear on tabs in the Context View pane, you can alternatively
display a category by selecting the box next to the category name.

Filter View

In a multiple-host environment using several C-NICs, there can be a large number of manageable elements per
adapter that can be difficult and cumbersome to view, configure, and manage all elements. Use the filter to
select a particular device function. Possible filter views include:
• All
• Team view
• NDIS view
• iSCSI view
• iSCSI Target view

Context View Pane

The Context View pane displays all the parameters that you can view for the object selected in the Explorer View
pane. The parameters are grouped by tabs and categories, depending on the parameter type. The available tabs
are Information, Configuration, Diagnostics, and Statistics. Because the BACS interface is context-sensitive,
only the parameters that apply to the selected object can be viewed or configured in the Context View pane.

Menu Bar

The following appear on the menu bar, but because the menu items are context-sensitive, not all items will be
available at all times:
File menu
• Team Save As: Saves the current team configurations to a file.
• Team Restore: Restores any saved team configuration from a file.
