Local Management Screen Elements
1-6 Introduction
Event Message Field
This field briefly displays messages that indicate if a Local Management procedure was executed
correctly or incorrectly, that changes were saved or not saved to Non-Volatile Random Access
Memory (NVRAM), or that a user did not have access privileges to an application.
Table 1-1 describes the most common event messages. Event messages related to specific Local
Management applications are described with those applications throughout this manual.
Heading Field
Indicates whether the module was accessed using the chassis or module IP address. If the chassis
IP address is used to access the module, the heading will be the chassis name, e.g., 6C105. If the
module IP address is used to access the module, the module name will be in the heading, the same
as listed next to Module Type, e.g., 6H258-17.
Module Type and Slot Number Fields
Display only when a module is being accessed through Local Management. The module type is
displayed and the chassis slot number of the module is displayed. A chassis screen will not display
these fields.
Table 1-1 Event Messages

SAVE TO KEEP
CHANGES
Attempting to exit the LM screen after one or more fields were modified,
but not saved to NVRAM.
NOTHING TO
SAVE
The SAVE command was executed, but nothing was saved to NVRAM
because there were no configuration changes since the data was last saved.
