Topology View
When using these labels, keep these considerations in mind:
• The IP address displays only in the labels for the command switch and member switches.
• The label of a neighboring cluster icon only displays the IP address of the command-switch IP
address.
• The link speeds displayed are the actual link speeds except on the LRE links, which display the
administratively assigned speed settings.
You can change the label settings from the Topology Options window by selecting View > Topology
Options.
