Map Elements

The following elements can appear on a map:

Device Nodes.

Device nodes represent the managed devices found in the device group.
A device node shows the following information:
The name of the device as it is kept in the Inventory database.
●
An optional, user-supplied annotation for the node.
●
A small icon representing the specific device or device product line. If the device is of an
●
"unknown" type, an unknown device icon (a circle with a question mark) is displayed.
The device's IP address.
●
The device alarm status, indicated by the presence of an alarm icon (small bell). The alarm status
●
shows the highest level alarm currently unacknowledged for the device. The color of the bell
indicates the severity of the alarm.
If no icon appears, then either there are no unacknowledged alarms for the device, or the alarm
status is below the alarm status threshold for the view. The alarm status threshold is set in the
properties window for the map, and specifies the lowest severity level at which an alarm status icon
should be displayed for a device node on the map.
If the alarm icon has an "X" through it, this means alarm propagation has been disabled for this
device; the alarm status of this device does not influence the aggregate alarm status displayed for the
map in which this node is located.
The device status, indicated by the icon.
●
- A red slash through the icon indicates that the device is down.
- A gray icon indicates that the device is offline.
- An icon without a red slash or gray color indicates that the device is up.
Ridgeline Concepts and Solutions Guide
The highest level alarm currently unacknowledged among the devices in the current
map or any of its submaps. Devices and submaps within this map that have alarm
propagation disabled do not contribute to this status.
If the alarm icon has an "X" through it, this means alarm propagation has been
disabled for this map, and will not contribute to the alarm status of the next higher-level
map.
Within the map view, an icon that represents a managed device in the device group.
Within the map view, an icon that represents a subgroup of the currently displayed
group.
Colored lines that represent connectivity between nodes in the map.
A box in the lower corner of the Map View that provides a thumbnail view of the
topology map. Use the smaller box within the Navigation Box to move around a large
map. Click the arrow icon to display or hide the Navigation Box in the Map View.
Specifies the magnification level for the map. You can move the slider to zoom to one
of six magnification levels.
Detailed information about the selected object.
You can click on the tabs to display information about the ports, operational status,
links, VLANs, and EAPS rings for the selected device.
