Overview

The NST WUI includes pop-up network tools widgets for IPv4, IPv6, Host Names, and MAC addresses. Each NST WUI pages which display network addresses or host names will allow you to click on the network entity to bring up the appropriate network tools widget. Once the widget is displayed, you can perform a variety of related actions using the network entity. See the NST Shell Console Command Reference Page for supporting information.

Other network tools widgets for setting DNS overrides globally or for each network interface and a [CloudShark Upload Manager] are available.
