device, the Allow Direct Device Access checkbox enables access to
targets directly through the device even while it is under CC-SG
management.

8. Type a short description of this device in the Description field.

Optional.

9. Select the Configure all ports checkbox to automatically add all ports

on this device to the Devices tab and to create a Node for each port
on this device in the Nodes tab.

 Corresponding nodes and ports will be configured with matching

names.

 A new node will be created for each port and an out-of-band

interface will be created for that node except for a blade chassis
node or a generic analog KVM Switch node.

 A node may or may not be created for a blade chassis appliance

or generic analog KVM switch connected to a KX2 port,
depending on whether an IP address or hostname for the blade
chassis or generic analog KVM switch has been entered in KX2.
See the KX II User Guide. A Web Browser interface is assigned
to a blade chassis node in CC-SG by default.

 A virtual blade chassis device will be created in the Devices tab

for blade servers that are directly connected to KX2 ports, if
blade port groups have been configured properly for these blade
servers in KX2. See the KX II User Guide.

then select the element you want to apply to the device from the list.
Select the blank item in the Element field for each Category you do

If you want to assign the Element to the related nodes as well as
the device, select the Apply to Nodes checkbox.

device and open a new blank Add Device screen that allows you to

continuing to a new Add Device screen.
