bar, or you can display a subset of the port configuration windows from the VSM
and Cluster Manager port pop-up menu. The port pop-up menu provides options
for displaying commonly used port configuration windows (Table 2-10). From the
port pop-up menu, you can configure a single port or configure multiple ports to
run with the same settings.
To display the port pop-up menu from VSM or Cluster Manager, you can either
• Click a specific port image, and right-click.
• Press the Ctrl key, click the port images on a single switch or on different
