When the icons of supported devices are dimmed, it means the device was listed in the topology table of a neighboring device, but that it did not respond to SNMP queries from Optivity Switch Manager. You may be able to get SNMP responses from such devices by adding appropriate community strings. For more information, see Accessing devices within different SNMP communities.
