Executing an action

This section describes how an action is typically executed.

You start an action in the SE Manager‘s working area. Two options are available after you have selected a tab:

>	Click a button.
>	Click an icon in a table (e.g. Change, Delete). Icons always belong to a particular record (of a table row) and are therefore contained in this table row. Each icon stands for a particular task which you can execute. Detailed information on the SE Manager's icons is provided in the SE Manager help.

After you have started the action, a dialog opens. See the section "The dialog" for the layout.

Within the dialog proceed as follows:

>	If required, control the action with options.
>	Confirm the action.

Following confirmation the action is executed and the dialog box remains open. Each action displays feedback in the associated dialog box. You can then terminate the dialog box with Close and thus refresh the working area of the main window. If you close the dialog box in another way, the working area is not refreshed.

Example of how an action is executed

>	Log in to the SE Manager.
>	Select Hardware -> Units -> [<se server> (SE<model>) ->] <unit> (MU) -> Management, SNMP tab.
>	In the SNMP trap receivers group click Add new trap receiver. A dialog with a parameter area opens.

>	Enter an IP address or an FQDN as trap receiver.
>	Enter a trap community.
>	Select component, SNMP version, and weight.

>	Click Add.

After execution of the action, the message that the trap receiver has been successfully added appears.

>	Click Close.

The table displays the added trap receiver.
