a In the map, select one of the links between one of the routers that
contain the WAN interfaces that are logically connected to each other
and the cloud that is being used to represent the logical group.
b Launch the Properties dialog box for that link by selecting Properties
from the right-click menu of the link.
c Select the Ports tab.
d Determine whether the router is shown in the From Port frame or the
To Port frame.
e Click the Set button in the frame that shows the router to launch the
Set Port dialog box.
f In the Set Port dialog box select the appropriate unit and interface
number of the interface on the router that is part of the logical
grouping.
g Close the Set Port dialog box by clicking OK.
h Close the Properties dialog box by clicking OK.
i Repeat this process for each of the other links between the routers
that contain the WAN interfaces that are logically connected to each
other and the cloud that is being used to represent the logical group.
You may find that there are logical connections between the logical
groups you have created. For example, you may have created two logical
groupings to represent two different ISPs that you use for Internet
connectivity.
If you wish to represent this connectivity within the map then you can
manually add a link between the two clouds representing the ISPs.
Alternatively you may even add a third cloud, name it “Internet” and then
manually add links from each of the two clouds representing the ISPs to
the new “Internet” cloud.
Note that these links between clouds represent logical connections only
and so cannot be monitored.
Restoring WAN Interface Representations after a Manual Layout
of WAN Topology
During the manual layout of WAN topology, you may have had to delete
a link between a router and the Default WAN cloud that represented
other WAN interfaces in addition to the one that you were changing the
