Managing Media, Modules, Segments, and Ports 21
Using Media
Selection Lists
Device View also provides two media selection lists called Media and Sub
Group which help you to choose the features you want to manage. For
example, this makes it easy to work with all Fast Ethernet ports, find out
which ports belong to VLAN 2, or choose all the ports that are connected
to a cascaded segment in a stack of PS Hub devices as in Figure 2.
Figure 2 Filtering with the Media Selection Bar
To use the media selection lists:
1
Choose your selection in the Media list box.
Typical media selections are:
Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, or Gigabit Ethernet, which highlight port
interfaces according to port speed
Console, which highlights all console ports
Vlan, which enables you to highlight ports that belong to the
virtual LAN you choose in the Sub Group list
SuperStack, which highlights all the devices in a stack
When you make your selection, the options in the Sub Group list box
change to reflect the media you want to work with. For example, the sub
group may be Half Duplex or Full Duplex, the number of a cascaded
segment, or the number of a VLAN.
2
Choose your selection in the Sub Group list box.
Devices or ports matching your selection are highlighted.
3
Manage the selection by clicking the right mouse button and choosing a
command from a shortcut menu.
