Device view
The Device view is a graphical representation of switch hardware
operating status and you can use it to perform management tasks on
specific objects. After you select a device from the Device menu, the
Device view appears.
Objects in the Device view are:
•
a stand-alone switch: called a unit in the menus and dialog boxes
• a switch stack: called a chassis in the menus and dialog boxes
•
a port
From the device view you can select single objects, groups of objects, or
the entire switch.
