> # Physical Attributes Pane

> Use the Physical Attributes pane to display a tree of the options available for managing the switches in the currently selected fabric, VSAN, or zone.

> To select an option, click a folder to display the options available and then click the option. You see the table with information for the selected option in the Information pane. The Physical Attributes pane provides the following main folders:

> - Switches—Views and configures hardware, system, licensing, and configuration files.
> - Interfaces—Views and configures FC physical, FC logical, VFC (FCoE), Ethernet, SVC, and PortChannel interfaces.
> - FC Services—Views and configures Fibre Channel network configurations.
> - IP—Views and configures IP storage and IP services.
> - Events—Views and configures events, alarms, thresholds, notifications, and informs.
> - Security—Views and configures MDS management and FC-SP security.
> - FCoE—Views and configures FCoE interfaces.
> - ISLs—Views and configures Inter-Switch Links.
> - End Devices—Views and configures end devices.

> Note You cannot view the detailed physical attributes of the data center switches or monitor the connections. When you select either a data center node or a LAN node the physical attributes pane will be blank.
