Viewing routes and threads
In a complex configuration, threads and routes fall into sets or subsets of the entire configuration. Often, when network information requires an update, only one of the sets or subsets is affected.
Use the View menu option to show or hide the route path lines in the configuration.
- Show All Routes
- Show All Reply Routes
The current view file is saved when you save the Netconfig file. This ensures that you do not lose updated view changes when NetConfig is saved.
- There are separate asterisks (*) to mark the modified NetConfig and view files. You can still modify the NetConfig and view files and save them separately.
- There is only one lock alert when a file lock conflict happens during opening/saving Network Configurator.
- If you break the lock during opening a NetConfig file, then you own both the NetConfig and current view file locks. Otherwise, if you do not break an existing lock, both the NetConfig and current view files can be opened in read-only mode.
- If a lock conflict happens when simultaneously saving the NetConfig file and current view, then there is only one alert to inform you about the conflict. You cannot break only the NetConfig lock and open a read-only view or open a read-only NetConfig file and break the view file lock.
- When NetConfig is open and another user attempts to access NetConfig, a message opens stating the NetConfig and view file are locked.
