Switch details

When in the Devices tab, if you select a switch, you will be able to view and edit options for the
switch including the mode, attributes and the IP address. The options you can edit depend on
whether the switch is the master (the one you are logged into), a slave, or a switch that belongs to a
different cascade system. All options are editable on the master. Some options are editable on a
slave. No options are editable on a master or slave that belongs to a different cascade system.
Switch mode
You can change the mode of the switch you are logged in to by changing the cascade participation
setting. Changing from master to slave or slave to master has significant implications. If you change
a switch from master to slave or slave to master, the switch will automatically reboot to effect the
change.
