Managing Routers

To manage a router, right-click a router (or select multiple objects including at least one router and
right-click one of them), and then and select Manage on the shortcut menu. You can also select the
Routers tab after you have opened one of the other tabs with one or more routers selected. The
Routers tab of the IzoT Commissioning Tool Device Manager opens.

You can use this tab to manage the selected routers. The tab contains an Object List that displays the
selected routers, and a Results Log that lists the results of any commands or tests.
