4.5.3 Modifying a Node Icon or a Map Background Image
Appendix A, “Icons and Menus” details the icons which are used in Cisco MGM.
The icons in the Network Map can be customized. Images smaller than 640 x 480 pixels by default
appear surrounded by blank space in the upper-left corner of the window. Images larger than 1024 x 768
pixels by default appear with scroll bars. Icon images are 32 x 32 pixels. Cisco MGM supports
nonanimated GIF and shapefile format icons and maps. Shapefile is a universal standard for data file that
allows users to zoom in and zoom out without losing details.
Note The size of the map file should not exceed 100 KB.
