IP Topology view

The IP Topology view displays a map of the devices on your network. To display the topology map for IP, you must have the IP - Main Display - IP privilege. For more information about privileges, refer to “User Privileges” on page 1283.

For more information about the components and customization of the topology map, refer to the following sections:

•“IP topology map components” on page 315.

•“Topology map elements” on page 315.

•“Topology map layout” on page 317.

For more information about functions you can perform on the topology map, refer to “Topology Map functions” on page 286.

L2 Topology view

The L2 Topology view displays a map of the Layer 2 traffic for devices on your network. The links on the map show physical links between physical ports of devices. If devices have more than one physical link between them, all physical links display on the topology map. To display the topology map for Layer 2, you must have the IP - Main Display - L2 privilege. For more information about privileges, refer to “User Privileges” on page 1283.

The L2 Topology view Product List has two categories, System Groups and User-defined Groups. System Groups has only All IP Products as a category, which contains all IP products in the system. User-defined Groups contain all user-defined product groups with Topology Display enabled. Each user-defined product group shows the products contained within that product group.

For more information about the components and customization of the topology map, refer to the following sections:

•“IP topology map components” on page 315.

•“Topology map elements” on page 315.

•“Topology map layout” on page 317.
