Topology View Chapter 3 Getting Started with CMS Table 3-6 VLAN Membership Modes Mode Static access Dynamic access 802.1Q trunk Negotiate trunk Color Light green Pink Peach White Topology View The Topology view displays how the devices within a switch cluster are connected and how the switch cluster is connected to other clusters and devices. From this view, you can add and remove cluster members. This view provides two levels of detail of the network topology: • When you right-click a cluster icon and select Expand Cluster, the Topology view displays the switch cluster in detail. This view shows the command switch and member switches in a cluster. It also shows candidate switches that can join the cluster. This view does not display the details of any neighboring switch clusters. (See Figure 3-8). • When you right-click a command-switch icon and select Collapse Cluster, the cluster is collapsed and represented by a single icon. The view shows how the cluster is connected to other clusters, candidate switches, and devices that are not eligible to join the cluster (such as routers, access points, IP phones, and so on). (See Figure 3-9). Note The Topology view displays only the switch cluster and network neighborhood of the specific command or member switch that you access. To display a different switch cluster, you need to access the command switch or member switch of that cluster. You can arrange the device icons in this view. To move a device icon, click and drag the icon. To select multiple device icons, you can either: • Press the left mouse button, drag the pointer over the group of device icons that you want to select, and then release the mouse button. • Press the Ctrl key, and click the device icons that you want to select. After selecting the icons, drag the icons to any area in the view. 3-10 Catalyst 2950 Desktop Switch Software Configuration Guide 78-14982-01
