5620 SAM User Guide
The NE display threshold for Equipment Group parameter specifies the number of NEs to
display when an equipment group is expanded in the navigation tree.
Equipment groups can contain up to 2000 NEs. The 5620 SAM client can display NEs in the
navigation tree up to a limit of 500 NEs per group.This limit is not configurable, and is
not affected by the NE display threshold for Equipment Group parameter.
You can set the NE display threshold for Equipment Group parameter to accomplish any
of the following:
• To display all the NEs in equipment groups (when groups contains no more than 500
NEs), set the parameter to the maximum value of 500 (the default).
• To display a small number of NEs for equipment groups, set the parameter to a low
value. The minimum setting is 2. You can use the NE list form to access and manage
the NEs in the group, and you can show additional NEs in the tree if required. See
“To manage the display of NEs in equipment groups on the navigation tree” in the
5620 SAM User Guide.
• To allow the display of enough NEs to meet your typical requirements while also
allowing additional NEs to show in the tree if necessary, set the parameter to a value
in the middle of the range. This is useful if you have more than 500 NEs in a group.
For example, if the parameter is set to 300, then 300 of the NEs in the group are
displayed in the tree. You can select and display up to 200 additional NEs in that
group before the limit of 500 is reached. Select the additional NEs to show in the tree
from the NE list form for the group; see “To manage NEs in equipment groups on the
navigation tree” in the 5620 SAM User Guide.
You must close and re-open the 5620 SAM client for changes to the NE display threshold
for Equipment Group parameter to take effect. The change is propagated to all clients
for a 5620 SAM server, but only after the clients are closed and re-opened.
