2.6.2.3 Creating Domains
Domains are icons where you can add a group of ONS 15454s or ONS 15327s. Adding domains to the
network view map makes networks with many nodes easier to manage. After you create a domain, you
can drag and drop ONS 15454 icons into it (Figure 2-7). The ONS 15454s are hidden until you open the
domain. Figure 2-9 shows an example of an opened domain.
