  • displaying a graphical user interface for defining the route;

    receiving user input to the graphical user interface specifying a first endpoint of the route, wherein the first endpoint comprises a channel of a first switch device;

    displaying a first icon representing the first switch device in response to the user input specifying the first endpoint;

    receiving user input to the graphical user interface specifying a second endpoint of the route, wherein the second endpoint comprises a channel of a second switch device; and

    displaying a second icon representing the second switch device in response to the user input specifying the second endpoint;

    wherein the first icon and the second icon visually indicate that the route passes from the first channel of the first switch device to the second channel of the second switch device.
