Managing a Chassis Other Than the GUI Client
Selecting a chassis symbol in the left panel by clicking on it performs the
following functions:
■ Displays chassis node information in the right panel (Figure 6-2).
■ Expands the directory structure, in the left panel, associated with the
chassis folder ( Figure 6-2).
■ Checks your initial login against the user profile on the chassis that is not
the GUI client chassis and grants access accordingly. You remain logged in
to the GUI client chassis.
Requirements for accessing a chassis other than the GUI client:
■ The GUI login must match to a user account on the chassis to be selected,
or else you receive a "Denied Access" message (Figure 6-3, “Denied
Access Message”).
■ The version number of the selected chassis must be compatible with the
version number of the GUI client as follows: numbers to the left of the
decimal point must match. For example, versions 3.15 and 4.0 are not
compatible, but versions 3.25 and 3.35 are. If versions are not
compatible, no further information and no sub-hierarchy appears for the
selected chassis.
Requirements for managing a chassis other than the GUI client:
■ Access to the chassis’ management functions is determined by the user
profile residing on the selected chassis and not by your user profile on the
GUI client.
Note: You must select the GUI client chassis in order to access CLI Console
and Trace Log in the Tools Menu. In a multi chassis environment you do not
have access to Trace Route or BAS Ping unless you select a chassis other than
the GUI client..
