CMS Window Components Chapter 2 Getting Started with CMS Host Name List The Host Name drop-down list (also referred to as the Device list) shows a list of cluster member names. To display or change the configuration of a specific switch in a cluster, select the switch name. The current configuration settings of that switch appear. In some cases, switch-specific features (such as the LRE profiles on the Catalyst 2900 LRE XL switches) are available only when the appropriate switch is a member of the cluster. Otherwise, switch-specific features either are grayed-out or are not shown in the CMS menu bar and pop-up menus. In other cases, depending on the menu option selected, certain cluster members names are not included in the Host Name list. For example, the VLAN Membership window would not display Catalyst 1900 and Catalyst 2820 switches, even though they are part of the cluster. Tabs Some CMS windows have multiple tabs that present different kinds of information. Tabs are arranged like folder headings across the top of the window. Click the tab to display a new screen, and click Apply to save information on all tabs but without closing the window. Lists Listed information can often be changed by selecting an item from a list. To change the information, select one or more items, and click Modify. Changing multiple items is limited to those items that apply to at least one of the selections. For example, when you select multiple ports, a parameter such as flow control is grayed out if the ports are not Gigabit Ethernet ports. Tips If you try to select a port or device in Cluster Manager while another CMS window is open, the computer issues a ringing bell sound. Rearrange the windows that are displayed to find the open window, and close it to proceed. 2-32 Catalyst 2900 Series XL and Catalyst 3500 Series XL Software Configuration Guide 78-6511-05

Host Name List
The Host Name drop-down list (also referred to as the Device list) shows a list of
cluster member names. To display or change the configuration of a specific switch
in a cluster, select the switch name. The current configuration settings of that
switch appear.
In some cases, switch-specific features (such as the LRE profiles on the
Catalyst 2900 LRE XL switches) are available only when the appropriate switch
is a member of the cluster. Otherwise, switch-specific features either are
grayed-out or are not shown in the CMS menu bar and pop-up menus.
In other cases, depending on the menu option selected, certain cluster members
names are not included in the Host Name list. For example, the VLAN
Membership window would not display Catalyst 1900 and Catalyst 2820
switches, even though they are part of the cluster.
Tabs
Some CMS windows have multiple
tabs
that present different kinds of
information. Tabs are arranged like folder headings across the top of the window.
Click the tab to display a new screen, and click
Apply
to save information on all
tabs but without closing the window.
Lists
Listed information can often be changed by selecting an item from a list. To
change the information, select one or more items, and click
Modify
. Changing
multiple items is limited to those items that apply to at least one of the selections.
For example, when you select multiple ports, a parameter such as flow control is
grayed out if the ports are not Gigabit Ethernet ports.
Tips
If you try to select a port or device in Cluster Manager while another CMS
window is open, the computer issues a ringing bell sound. Rearrange the
windows that are displayed to find the open window, and close it to proceed.
