IP topology map components

Topology maps are divided into three sections:

• Product List — The top left pane displays a list of all devices (topology tree) in your AOR. Devices

display in topology groups. The Management application has a Search tool that you can use to

find a device quickly. (Refer to “Using the Search tool” on page 53 for more information.)

For more information about the Product List and functions you can perform on the Product List,

refer to “IP Product List” on page 284.

• Topology Map — The top right pane displays the devices using graphic elements (icons).

Automatically displays links between devices running FDP or LLDP on the topology maps.

For more information about the Topology Map and functions you can perform on the Topology

Map, refer to “Topology Map” on page 285.

• Minimap — The bottom right pane displays an overall view of the Topology Map. To jump to a

specific location on the Topology Map, click that area on the Minimap, and a close-up view of

the selected location displays on the Topology Map. For more information about the Minimap

and using the Minimap, refer to “Minimap” on page 288.
