164CHAPTER 5: WORKING WITH THE MAP

Unvalidated Links

Some links in the map represent links that are unvalidated. Unvalidated links can occur when a rediscovery of a subnet fails to find a link that existed previously, or when you manually add a link to the map. A link remains unvalidated until a rediscovery verifies the existence of the link. For more information about rediscovery see “Scheduled Discoveries” on page 106. For more information “Linking Items in the Map” on

page 204.

Unvalidated links are represented in the map by a dashed line, as shown below:

Physical Link Annotations

Physical links can be annotated to graphically indicate their attributes. For more information about how to enable and disable the display of annotations see “View” on page 66. The annotations are displayed at both ends of a physical link as shown in the following table.
