Figure 6-2 Confirmation Reset Window for a Network Element
Actions Area
The Actions area of the C6576M Network Element dialog box provides the following information:
• Commission button— Commissions the object manually. You can commission the object only if
the object is in a decommissioned state. Clicking this button forces a subchassis discovery to be
executed, and propagates the commissioned status to all subobjects.
• Decommission button—Decommissions the object manually and propagates the decommissioned
status to all subobjects. In the decommissioned state, the properties of the object are not monitored.
As a result, data displayed in the configuration window is not guaranteed to be current.
Status Field
The display-only Status field located at the bottom of the window indicates the current state of the object.
This field has the following values:
• decommissioned—CEMF is not actively monitoring the object attributes.
• discovery—CEMF is trying to determine the contents and configuration of the switch/router.
• normal—Presence polling is performed periodically.
• normallostcomms—CEMF has lost communication with the device from the normal state.
