Introduction
The network topology explorer is your home base where you can view the topology organization of your Layer 1 and Layer 3 networks by providing a real-time perspective of their interconnectivity.
You can also view the visual representation of nodes and links, save views, search for specific device and perform different actions provided in the explorer.
| Callout | Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | Click the hamburger menu to access the Save view option, Favorite, and Saved views sections. |
| 2 | Click + icon to open a new tab. You can view multiple tabs in a single explorer window. |
| 3 | You can search for the nodes and links using device name, make or model using search field. |
| 4 | You can change the visual representation using Layer option. The available layer options are: Layer 1 and Layer 3. |
| 5 | Depth refers to the level of topology you want to view. When you have a large number of resources across multiple levels, displaying all resources is impractical. You can specify view levels up to Depth 3. |
| 6 | Select the layout you want to view from the available View Options. |
| 7 | The vertical and horizontal navigation arrows scroll the topology explorer vertically and horizontally. |
| 8 | Select hand or select tool. |
| 9 | You can zoom in and out of the topology map to change the scope of the visualization. When a map is viewed at a low zoom resolution, icons are displayed with a reduced size, the edges are thinner and the label names appear hidden. |
Full Screen view
A Full-Screen mode option has been added for network topology maps, allowing you to expand the topology view for better visibility on larger screens. This feature enhances your ability to navigate complex network topologies by providing a larger and uninterrupted workspace. However, while in full-screen mode, all other actions, such as applying filters or making edits, are temporarily disabled until you exit full-screen mode.
In full-screen mode, the only interactive element is the alert count. Click the alert count and it will navigate you to the Alerts page in a new window, allowing you to review and manage the alerts separately.
