FS6300 NMS User Manual

Adding Pre-Defined Containers

To add containers in the NMS:
1. In the Container window, click on Add in the menu tree.
2. From the drop-down menu, select which type of container you want to add. You should add the Geo-
graphical Areas first, then add the Nodes in that area, then add the Chassis Labels in the Nodes. Each Geo-
graphical Area-Node-Chassis combination is unique, and may only be applied to cards in one chassis-
subnet.
– Geographical Area (GA): The Geographical Area ID must be numerical, and cannot be changed once it
is added to the system. However, the Name may be modified at any time.
– Node Name (NN): Add nodes in the network to a Geographical Area. You may also add details such as
system manager and system location.
– Chassis Label: The Chassis ID must be numerical, but the Label Name is optional.
Note
3. Click Submit.
