CATEGORY

A pulldown menu that specifies the names of the group of management information. For example, in the configure port window, the CATEGORY name may specify the physical port type, the transmission medium or the protocol used. When you select a name, the configuration window for that category is displayed.

For TTY port types (console ports and auxiliary ports), CiscoView displays terminal services configuration information. Asynchronous ports must be configured before they can be managed with CiscoView.
