Installing and Using HP Stack Manager

Automatic Chain Display

The Chain Display window displays a list of HP AdvanceStack hubs that
HP Stack Manager detects in the chain to which you have connected.
Information about each hub is shown including the hub model and its
station address. From this window you can access any of the hubs in the
chain and, if you so desire, monitor it and/or change its configuration.

Online Help

HP Stack Manager provides an online help system that has step-by-step
instructions for using the program's features. The help system can be
accessed from the main menu, or from a Help button on each of the
function screens.

Port Status Display

The Port Status display is a graphical representation of the front of the
hub. This display is accessed when you "double-click" on the hub listed
in the Chain Display window, or when you click on the hub and then
click on the Access button. In the display, the colors and symbols for
each port indicate its status. You can select the port you wish to monitor
or control by clicking on the symbol for that port.

LAN Traffic Statistics

The graphical hub display includes two bar graphs that indicate network
activity and collision levels that the hub is experiencing.

Hub Identification

The Identify function displays general information about the currently
selected hub. Access this information by clicking on the ID icon.
