A line indicates a single logical connection configured between two nodes:
•A line that ends in a diamond or circle indicates that the connection has a
configured linkset, associated with that node.
•A line that does not end in a diamond or circle indicates that the linkset is not
configured on that ITP or cannot be displayed because SGM is not managing
that node.
•A heavy line indicates that there are two or more linksets configured between
two signaling points.
The color of a graphical element indicates its current status.
•For nodes, the possible colors are:
–
Green—The node is currently in Active status.
–
Yellow—The node is currently in Warning status.
–
Gray—The node is currently in Discovering, Polling, Unmanaged, or
Waiti ng status.
–
Red—The node is currently in Unknown status.
•For linksets (diamonds or circles), the possible colors are:
–
Green—The linkset is in Active status.
–
Blue—The linkset is in Shutdown status.
–
Yellow—The linkset is in Warning status.
–
Red—The linkset is in either Unavailable or Unknown status.
Note If there is more than one linkset configured on the connection, the status
color is an aggregation of the status of every linkset on that connection.
A note icon in the upper left corner of a node element means the node has been
annotated. That is, a user has attached a descriptive string to the node. A dot in
the diamond or circle at the end of the line means a note has been attached to the
linkset.
An event icon (orange triangle) in the upper right corner of a node element means
there is a recent event associated with the node.
The topology map also provide right-click menus for linksets and signaling
points.
