Introduction

User Interface Basics

The system management pane and the working pages it references are independent of configu-
rations. The information contained in

t

he system management pages is determined by (1) the

routers and control panels in your system, (2) the system controllers you have identified, and (3)
the state of the routers and control panels in your system.

It is through the system management pages that you can control the operation of the system
controllers and perform major and minor maintenance tasks on your system. That is, it is
through the system management pages that you can (1) upload and download configurations
to system controllers, (2) apply certain changes dynamically, (3) start, stop, and restart system
controllers, and (4) set and clear locks, and change router crosspoint states.

Hovering

If you hover your cursor over a system controller in the system management pane, an informa-
tion message pops up briefly:

This message tells you the name of the system controller’s configuration, the date on which it
was configured, and the software version of the system controller.

Context Menu

If you right-click any system controller in the system management pane, a context menu
appears allowing you to configure additional aspects of the system controller:

The commands of the context menu are discussed under

Navigation Pane
