The ExtremeView applet displays detailed information about the status of Extreme
switches (Summit and Black Diamond switches) in a number of categories. Any
Enterprise Manager user can view status information about these network devices
known to the Enterprise Manager. Users with the appropriate access permissions can
also view and modify configuration information for those switches using either the
ExtremeWare Vista graphical user interface, or through Telnet and the ExtremeWare
Command Line Interface (CLI). The ExtremeView Telnet feature includes a macro
capability that lets you create and execute scripts of CLI commands repeatedly on
multiple devices in one operation.
You can also use the interactive Telnet capability to view and modify configuration
information for Cisco devices.

communicate as if they were on the same physical local area network (LAN).
The ExtremeWare Enterprise Manager VLAN Manager is an enterprise-wide application
that manages many aspects of VLANs on Extreme Network's Summit and
BlackDiamond switches. Any Enterprise Manager user can view status information
about the VLANs currently known to Enterprise Manager. Users with the appropriate
access can create and delete VLANs, add and remove ports from existing VLANs, and
create and modify the protocol filters used to filter VLAN traffic.

A Virtual Chassis (VC) stack is a configuration of one to four Summit Virtual Chassis
and up to eight connected Summit switches.
The Virtual Chassis Stack Manager of the ExtremeWare Enterprise Manager identifies
and manages virtual stack configurations, including configuration of the Gigabit
Ethernet ports on Summit switches. Any Enterprise Manager user can view the VC
stack configuration topology and the details about individual components. Users with
appropriate access can create, modify, and delete Virtual Chassis stack topology
representations in the Enterprise Manager database, configure switch ports, and invoke
a stack rediscovery.
