10.3.6 Device Properties Menu
The Device Properties menu for Fibre Channel devices allows you to
view and update individual device settings for Fibre Channel devices
connected to an adapter.
Since there are too many fields to fit on one screen, you must scroll left
and right by clicking on the scroll indicators at the bottom of the screen.
Figure 10.5 shows the Device Properties menu.
