Adding a VPN to a Map
You can add a VPN to a map view if the VPN was previously created by a user or discovered by Prime
Network Vision and are not currently displayed in the map.
Note Adding a VPN affects other users if they are working with the same map.

Step 2 Do either of the following:
• From the File menu, choose Add to Map > VPN > Existing.
• In the main toolbar, click Add to Map, then choose Add to Map > VPN > Existing.
The Add VPN dialog box is displayed.
Step 3 Do either of the following:
• Choose a search category, enter a search string, then cli ck Go to narrow search results to a range of
VPNs or a specific VPN. Search categories include:

the Name category and enter “net,” Prime Network Vision displays VPNs that have “net” in their
names whether at the beginning of the name, the middle, or the end.
• Choose Show All to display all the VPNs.
Step 4 Select the VPN that you want to add to the map.
Tip Press Shift or Ctrl to choose multiple adjoining or nonadjoining VPNs.
