give the group a name, specify the group's geographic location, and
provide a brief description of the group.
Add Network Element(s) Opens the Add New Network Element wizard, which allows you to add
a new NE or add several new NEs at once.
Dashboard Opens the Cisco MGM Dashboard, which shows the number of NEs in
the management domain, and the number of critical, major, minor,
warning, or unacknowledged alarms. In addition, the dashboard
contains an Alarm Browser tool, which allows you to launch the Alarm
Browser window, and an Open Domain Explorer tool, which layers the
Domain Explorer window as the top active window.
Network Map Opens the Network Map window for the selected node.
Domain NE Table Opens the Domain NE Table window for the selected node.
Notify Users Opens the Notify Users dialog box.
Refresh Data Refreshes all data being displayed by Cisco MGM. There are two icons,
and both refresh data from either the server or the database. The Refresh
Data icon with blue and red arrow (as seen in Circuit Table) flashes
when updates are available. This icon has two modes: manual refresh
and autorefresh.
The Refresh Data icon with the “hockey puck” and red arrow does not
notify you that updates are available. You must click the button in order
to retrieve updated data.
Note Clicking Refresh Data in the Domain Explorer window
refreshes all data for the entire Cisco MGM client. Depending
on the number of NEs in your network, you might experience a
delay while the data refreshes.
Note It takes longer to refresh data from the NE than from the server.
Debug Options Opens the Debug Options dialog box. Use this dialog box to select
parameters for the Debug Log, which contains data that is useful for
