View Networking Components

The system provides the Networking view to show the following networking information about a vCenter:

  • Virtual Standard Switches and Port-Groups that these switches have
  • Virtual Distributed Switches, Port-Groups, and Uplink Port Groups that the switches have
  • Port-Groups and their connected Virtual Machines

  2. In the Network pane, select ESXi in the Category field and Networking in the View field.
  3. Expand the network tree and select a node to view the context maps of a node.

Information Tip: For more context maps supported under the Networking View, see Context Maps for details.
