Local NetView Access
The SmartSwitch 1800 supports a local NetView access function that allows the node
operator to send commands from the node to lines and PUs. This function is only
between the node and lines/PUs—the commands and responses are not transmitted to
NetView.
To display the NetView Access Options Menu, press
[H]
at the On-Line Node Opera-
tions Menu (or
[B], [A], [H]
from the Main Menu).
