Shortcut Icon

 

 

You can use shortcut icons to navigate to the submap that contains the device. Either double-click on the shortcut icon, or select Follow Link from the pull-right menu of the shortcut icon. This navigates to the submap, selects the device, centers it on the display and zooms in on it.

Navigating to a submap using the shortcut icon is equivalent to navigating sideways in the submap hierarchy. If you navigate to a subnet’s submap in this way, and then navigate up, you will arrive at the top-level map, rather than return to your original submap.

Where the device that a shortcut represents exists on more than one submap, 3Com Network Director selects one of these for the shortcut to link to. This is the submap represented by the text in parentheses shown after the shortcut label.

Navigating Around the Map Using the Tree

As well as using the map for map navigation, you can also use the tree for map navigation.

To navigate to the submap associated with a subnet or device group, locate the branch representing the subnet or device group in the tree and either:

double-click on the branch representing the subnet or device group

or,

select the branch representing the subnet or device group and select Enter Submap from the pull-right menu.
