Add a link between devices on a topology view
You can add a link between devices. For devices that do not support link discovery through
Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP), you can manage links manually. When you know that
physical connections exist for the non-LLDP devices, you can draw these links manually and
also update them manually when the physical connections are reconfigured.
To add a link between devices on a topology view:
1. Open a browser and connect to the application through the static IP address of the
NMS300 server
.
