Using the Network Workshop
The Network Workshop acts as the home base of the application and is the first window displayed when the NMC-RX application opens. From here, you can examine all managed elements in your network, create groups and devices, and arrange them in a logical manner.
After you establish a meaningful hierarchy, you can easily navigate to any given device. In the context area, you can list the groups and elements to which you have access. Depending on your privilege level, the context area enables you to:
- Create groups
- View and configure groups
- Organize groups into a hierarchy
- Create devices
- Access the Device Workshop
Listing Groups and Elements
The context area in the Network Workshop lets you display groups or elements. To display all groups or elements in your network, click the corresponding tab in the context area:
- Groups tab—Provides a hierarchical listing of all the groups and their associated elements
- All Elements tab—Provides a flat, tabular list of all the elements
