Managing Devices
When the NetView program is started, the MetaConsole NetView snapin runs automatically.
When a new NetView map is opened, the snapin checks each symbol on the map to see if
it can be managed. If the symbol represents an object that can be managed by the MetaConsole
NetView snapin, the symbol changes to an executable icon with a three-dimensional appearance.
To view information or change settings for one of these devices, double-click its icon. A browser
opens and displays management information related to that device.
The browser window is divided into two panes. You use the navigation tree
in the navigation
pane
on the left to select the information you want displayed in the details pane
on the right.
