Topology Tool

The Topology Tool tab, similar to the Topology tab found on most devices, allows you to create and save a diagram of your specific network. Multiple network diagrams can also be created and saved on the service’s servers, which can then be retrieved whenever needed.

The Topology Tool tab provides all the things you need to create a network diagram, such as Fortinet device icons, connector lines, and text boxes. There are also two modes to select from: View mode displays the network diagram and Edit mode provides what you need to create a network diagram.

Note: The View Mode / Edit Mode button acts as a toggle, so that when you are in one mode, the text displayed indicates that selecting it will switch the display to the other mode. For example, if you are in Edit mode, the text displays “View Mode”, indicating that selecting the button will switch you to the View mode.
