3.7.4 Modifying a Node Icon or a Map Background Image

Network map backgrounds are provided by default as part of CTM, and are used to display a geographical layout of the network. The icons in the Network Map can be customized. See Appendix A, “Icons and Menus Displayed in CTM” for details of all the icons displayed in this window.

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. CTM supports nonanimated GIF and shapefile format icons and maps.

Shapefile is a universal standard for data files that allows users to zoom in and zoom out without losing details.

Note The size of the map file should not exceed 100 KB.

Step 5 Choose File > Save to save the changes.

Note When you add NEs or groups to a group or to the top-level domain, the coordinates of those objects on the related Network Map are initially null, so CTM automatically positions the objects. If you move an object manually and save the map, the object has fixed coordinates. Therefore, if you open a map and
