Network Topology
The Network Topology page provides a visual representation of your network. The following shows a small network configuration. Larger, more complex configurations can also be easily represented.
By clicking on a node in the configuration, you get the details for that node. Depending on the node type, the details might include IP address, MAC address and status. Other node types may include the name and links to options in other views, like the Dashboard, for example. Click away from the pop-up window to hide the details.
Some nodes have a red number associated with them. That indicates the number of devices attached to that node, including itself. Double-click on the node to view a device list.
The icons at the top right corner of the Network Topology page provide the following options:
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Export/Download Options | Click to generate a PDF file of the network topology and the details for each node. |
| Refresh | Click to refresh data on the page. |
| Additional Options |
Click to see a list of additional options. These include Page Tips, Go To Schedules, and Go to Archives.
|
The icons to the left of the network graphic can be used to manipulate the view of the data.
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Reset | Click to center the topology graph when you’re done moving things around. |
| Selection Mode | Choose Select mode or Drag mode. You can select or drag any of the nodes in the topology diagram. |
| Zoom |
Use the sliding node to zoom in or zoom out of the topology diagram. You can also use the mouse wheel. Each click of the wheel represents a 10% change in zoom factor. |
For some nodes displayed on the topology map, you can drill down to get more information. Once the node is highlighted, you can right-click on your mouse to see a list of options associated with that particular kind of node. As shown in the following examples, you can chose to drill down on all traffic, web activities, blocked issues or threats for an end user system. For a firewall, you see a different set of options that are links to different reports available on the other views.
