Displaying Information: Display screens show results

from a data collection operation such as performance or
device test. They also can simply display configuration
information such the Identity screen. These screens cannot
be edited. Data or status continues to be collected while
the screen is displayed. Status and performance polling
occurs at regular intervals. Selecting Refresh updates the
screen display with the most current information.
Typically, display screens are filtered to show only the
information or data collected for the active configuration.
