2.6.2 The "dLAN network" window
The dLAN AVpro manager shows you the network structure for the selected
dLAN in the "dLAN networks" window with the list of the corresponding dLAN
devices. It also shows the tabs for the other networks which are available in the
database and are opened by clicking on their tab.
Depending on the network mode of the dLAN shown ('MDU' or 'P2P'), the net-
work structure shown provides the following elements:
a) The dLAN name
This name is at the uppermost position of the structure and represents the
logical root of the network tree. The default name is: new AVpro network
You can change the name of the network by right clicking on the name or
by selecting the option Rename from the context menu as desired.
b) The network tree hierarchy of the dLAN
It is dependent on the selected network mode ('MDU' or 'P2P'):
 If the network is a MDU network, then a new dLAN network segment
will always be opened on the second logical hierarchy level with a sin-
gle dLAN device as master. All other dLAN devices in this segment are,
by definition, slaves. In MDU mode, you can create as many new MDU
segments as you want.
The first dLAN device that is created in the new MDU segment is thus
automatically the master of the respective MDU segment.
The third logical hierarchy level in the MDU network tree includes
exclusively dLAN devices that serve as slaves to the master. There are
no additional sublevels in MDU mode.
In MDU mode, you can open and close the detailed representation of
the affected segment by clicking on '+' or '-' to the left next to the net-
work name or the network segment (master).
