Topology

Topology displays the connections between two interfaces. You can browse the thumbnails of available topology types from the Device Details pane.

Tip: Multiple topology types can be drawn on the same map page concurrently by extending neighbors.

Mapping Device Topology

1. In the Device Details pane, click the Topology tab. By default, the thumbnail of the IPv4 Layer 3 topology map is displayed.



2. Click the tabs of other topology types to preview its thumbnail, if any.

Tip: Only the built topology types of the device are listed. The IPv4 Layer 3 topology is built automatically during a scheduled discovery task. To build the topology, go to the Benchmark task and select the one you need.



See Benchmark Task Settings for more details.

3. Click the icon at the upper-right corner of the tab to diagram it on a new map page, or click the  icon to diagram it on the current map page.
