Smart DeskStream Manager

Advanced Functionality

We can set up to five write and read passwords to give several
people different levels of management access to the DeskStream.

The Dynamic table or port configurations allows us to change any
one of the configurable port parameters on one or more ports at one
time. The contents of this table can also be saved to file, clipboard or
to a printer for archiving. When saving this table wait until it has
finished its dynamic restore.

Bridges and switches sometimes have a problem with the setting of
the Address Recognised/ Frame Copied bits when using transparent
bridging. This can be manually configured on the DeskStream.

A Trueview icon will display the hard and software versions; this
information can be saved to a file, clipboard or to a printer. Dump and
Configuration data is also noted in this table which can be uploaded
and subsequently, if necessary, downloaded back to the
DeskStream.

Opening the I-field icon will show a status report for the DeskStream;
if there is a problem a Details button will give more information.
