Figure 49: Node Finder

The Search Results panel can be sorted by clicking any of the column

headings.

Select from any of the searched results and it will automatically select the

node in the “Overview,” and “Mapping view” tab.

LAYOUT ACTION

Initially, the map view is represented with a default map layout, which is

the “Organic Layout.” Eventually, you will want to change the graph layout

to have a better view of your network topology. Using the Layout Action,

you have the option to choose from the customized layouts that would best

represent your network topology.

Types of Map Layout:

◆ Orthogonal Layout — Allows the topology of the network to be clearly

visualized. In an orthogonal layout, lines belonging to connected

devices do not overlap, reminiscent of a flow chart. This provides a neat

and organized view of the network.

◆ Organic Layout — Displays highly-connected regions of the network

as clusters on the network. This display can give you a good overview

of the functional design of a network.

◆ Hierarchical Layout — Shows the network in a “top-down” fashion,

indicating the path back to the core device.

◆ Circular Layout — Shows relationships between devices on a network.

A circular view works best when the network is relatively small. Large

networks often produce circular maps that are too complex to be

useful.

◆ Edge Router — Arranges the node links similar to flowcharting.
