After enabling the Switch to be a Commander Switch (CS), the Single IP Management folder will then contain four
added links to aid the user in configuring SIM through the web, including Topology, Firmware Upgrade,
Configuration File Backup/Restore and Upload Log File.
Topology
This window will be used to configure and manage the Switch within the SIM group and requires Java script to
function properly on your computer.
The Java Runtime Environment on your server should initiate and lead you to the Topology window, as seen
below.
