Map Files 3Com Network Director stores device and topology information in map files. Map files have the file extension.map.

Only one map file may be open at any one time. Opening a new map file will close the current map file.

Two other types of files are saved alongside map files. These files use the same name as the map file but have Events.edb and .properties file extensions. These files are used internally by 3Com Network Director. While the presence of these files is not required to successfully load a map file, previously logged event information will not be available if the former is not present and some user-defined options may not be set if the latter is not present.
