Topology View
Figure3-9 Topology-View Link Icons
Device and Link Labels
The Topology view displays device and link information by using these labels:
Cluster and switch names
Switch MAC and IP addresses
Link type between the devices
Link speed and IDs of the interfaces on both ends of the li nk
When using these labels, keep these considerations in mind:
The IP address displays only in the labels for the command switch and member switches.
The label of a neighboring cluster icon only displays the IP address of the command-switch IP
address.
The displayed link speeds are the actual link speeds except on the LRE links, which display the
administratively assigned speed settings.
You can change the label settings from the Topology Options window, which is displayed by selecting
View> Topology Options.
Colors in the Topology View
The colors of the Topology view icons show the status of the devices and links (Tab le 3-7 , Table 3-8 , and
Table 3 -9).
