The Device View
2-14 Viewing Device Information
• Source Addressing allows you to view the source MAC addresses communicating
through the currently selected interface.
• HSIM W87 Config (T3) allows you to configure a T3 interface for an installed
HSIM-W87; see Chapter 8,
HSIM-W87 Configuration , for details.
• I/F Statistics launches a window that displays MIB-II interface statistics for the
selected interface.
• Configuration allows you to configure Ethernet ports for Standard or Full Duplex
Mode, or configure operational parameters for Fast Ethernet ports, depending on the
type of interface selected.
• Alarm Configuration launches the RMON-based Basic and Advanced Alarm
applications; see Chapter 4,
Alarm Configuration , for details. Note that this selection
is available for all bridge port interfaces — even those (like ATM) that do not

respectively; refer to the Bridging chapter in the Element Manager Tools Guide, and
Enabling and Disabling Ports , on page 2-104 , for more information.
