Select an entry and click on the Open button to open the Device Manager window
for the selected SU (not available for SU-EZ units).
If you select an SU-EZ unit, you can use the Web Cut-Through button to open the
default browser and connect to its web management interface.
Select one or more entries and click on the Disassociate SU button to
disassociate the selected SU(s). Click on the Disassociate All SUs to disassociate
all SUs. This feature is useful during configuration changes, enabling to force the
SU(s) to re-initiate the association process, including the search for the best AU
(or a preferred AU) using the Best AU process, without performing a full reset.
NOTE
An SU is removed from the list of associated SUs only under one of the following conditions:
 A SNAP frame is received from another AU indicating that the SU is now associated with the
other AU.
 The SU failed to respond to 100 consecutive data frames transmitted by the AU and is
considered to have "aged out".
 During the last 6 minutes (or more) the SU did not transmit any data frame, and failed to
respond to certain frames that typically are transmitted by the AU every 10 seconds. Since the
sampling interval for this state is about 10 minutes, it means that the decision to remove the SU
from the Associations Database will take place between 6 to 16 minutes from the time the SU
ceased sending data or responding to these "keep-alive" frames (for AUS the sampling interval
is 1 minute, meaning decision time of 6 to 7 minutes).
