3.1 USING LOCAL MANAGEMENT SCREENS
Section 3.1.1 through Section 3.1.3 describe Local Management screen elements, keyboard
conventions and how to navigate through the Local Management screens of the VHSIM2-A6DP.
3.1.1 Local Management Screen Elements
There are five types of screens used in Local Management: password, menu, configuration, status,
and warning screens. Each type of screen can consist of one to five basic elements, or fields. Since
the top part of the screen contains the same type of information (the name of the screen, the switch
model number, the firmware revision, and the BOOT PROM revision), it is not shown in the
following descriptions of the screens. Only the lower portion of each screen is shown. The cutaway
line can be seen in Figure 3-1. The name of the screen is in the figure title for each screen.
Figure 3-1 shows an example of the fields in a screen. A description of each field follows the
figure.
NOTE: The following definitions apply to most Local Management screens. Exceptions
to these definitions may occur in the Local Management screens of some devices.
