Description
Select view
Allows you to select saved views (global or personal) from a pull-down menu.
Save View
Allows you to save a view for further reference. Saved views are displayed on the Topology Views page.
Delete View
Allows you to delete the current view if you are the owner of the view.
Manage Views
Takes you to the Topology page, where you can edit or delete your saved topology views.
Show Info
Provides mouse-over information about Site/group, device, or link (for example, description).
Top-level Site-based layout
Returns to the default top-layer view of the topology.
Expand all groups
Expands all groups in the Topology view so long as the number of Sites/groups and devices does not exceed the limitations of the viewer (1,000 devices; 1,000 site groups).
Collapse all groups
Collapses all groups in the Topology view.
Filter
Lets you filter the devices displayed in the view by Device Vendor or Device Type. Filtering devices does not hide the devices. Rather it deemphasizes them in the view.
AppNetwork Path
Launches the AppNetwork Path interface, which lets you find the path between a given source and destination, at the bottom of the screen. See “Using AppNetwork Path Microanalysis for more information.
