9.1.2. The Circuit Group Control Screen - Web Browser Interface
The Circuit Group Control Screen is used to apply A/B switching commands to all
circuits in a user-defined Circuit Group. As described in Section 5.7, Circuit Groups
allow you to define a group of circuits, dedicated to a similar purpose or client, and then
direct switching commands to the group, rather than switching one circuit at a time.
To invoke A/B switching commands, proceed as follows:
1. Access the AFS-16 Command Mode as described in Section 5.1.
2. Click on the "Circuit Group Control" link on the left hand side of the screen to
display the Circuit Group Control Screen.
