The Device List is the starting point for running a test. It also provides a
check to determine if all of the installed devices are being recognized by the
multiaccess enclosure.
The Device List includes a summary status for each device. The devices
that are testable or that have additional status available can be selected.
Selecting a device will then display the Device Status and Control page for
that device.
The Status displayed for a device may have the following values:
ENABLED Device is enabled for normal operation. For multi-port
devices this means that at least one port is enabled.

performed. For multi-port Devices this means that all
