Viewing Real-Time Switch Status
This function displays the status of VBN switches in the YesWare database
listed by IP address. Using this function, you can view the "up/down" status of
all switches in the database, view packet traffic and status data for all the ports
on an individual switch, and configure the time interval used to refresh switch
status data.
Note: If a switch or port has gone down, it may have a problem or it may
not have been enabled properly when it was provisioned. Choose the
View/Edit Switch Table or View/Edit Port Table link from the Port
Manager. Select the switch/port to edit and verify the switch/port status is
"Enabled".in the configuration dialog.
