Modifying GSS Device Name and Location
You can modify the name and location of any of your GSS devices using the
primary GSSM GUI. To modify other network information such as the hostname,
IP
address, or role, you must access the CLI on that GSS device (refer to the Cisco
Global Site Selector Getting Started Guide).
To modify the name and location of a GSS device from the primary GSSM GUI:
1. Click the Resources tab.
2. Click the Global Site Selectors navigation link. The Global Site Selectors list
page appears (see
Figure 1-2). All active GSS devices appear with an
“Online” status. The GSS devices requiring activation appear with an
“Inactive” status.
3. Click the Modify GSS icon for the first GSS to activate. The Modifying GSS
details page appears (see
Figure 1-3).
4. In the Global Site Selector Name field, enter a new name for the device. You
use the device name to easily distinguish one GSS device from another in the
primary GSSM list pages, where many devices may appear together.
5. From the Location drop-down list, select a new device location.
6. Click Submit to save your changes and return to the Global Site Selector list
page.
Deleting GSS Devices
Deleting a GSS device such as a GSS or a standby GSSM allows you to remove
the non-functioning device from your network or reconfigure and then reactivate
a GSS device. With the exception of the primary GSSM, you can delete GSS
devices from your network through the primary GSSM GUI.
To delete a GSS device from the primary GSSM GUI:
1. Click the Resources tab.
2. Click the Global Site Selectors navigation link. The Global Site Selectors list
page appears.
3. Click the Modify GSS icon located to the left of the GSS device you want to
delete. The Modifying GSS details page appears.
