Links between devices are displayed in one of the following states:
•
A link between SNA devices, where neither of the connected interfaces on either
device is a member of the VLAN, is unmarked.
•
A link between an SNA device and a non-SNA device, whose interface on the SNA
device is not in the VLAN, is unmarked.
•
A link between SNA devices where the connected interfaces in both devices are
members of the VLAN is highlighted as a member of the VLAN.
•
A link between an SNA device and a non-SNA device whose interface on the SNA
device is a member of the VLAN is highlighted.
•
An asymmetric link between SNA devices where one of the connected interfaces is a
member of the VLAN and the other one is not is marked in yellow.
The connection between an aggregation of links (LAGs) between devices in the topology map
is marked according to the following rules:
•
If at least one link is highlighted, the connection is highlighted.
•
If at least one link has an asymmetric connection, the connection is yellow.
In the Connection Explorer, every link can be viewed individually. When a link is has an
asymmetric configuration, in addition to being colored yellow, the connection explorer
displays which side of the link is not a member of the VLAN.
STP Information
This overlay displays the active topology of the network. When this overlay is activated, an
indication is added to the spanning tree root device and all connections. This indication
highlights the links that are blocked by the common spanning tree.
When viewing a connection explorer, all blocked links are highlighted.
When a link is blocked, the connection explorer specifies which end of the link is the actual
blocked interface.
Tags are used to identify devices in the Topology view by attributes or by user-defined names.
Tags are used to quickly select multiple elements by searching for a specific tag. For example,
you can search for all network nodes labelled with the IP Phone tag.
