Zooming the Map
The map is automatically zoomed when you select a Device, a Link, or a Domain from the EAPS tables,
or when you enter Focus Mode. You can also zoom the map manually.
You can use the Zoom In and Zoom Out buttons found above and below the Zoom slider at the
●
right side of the viewport. The Zoom In and Zoom Out buttons can also be accessed from the Map
right-click menu.
You can use the Zoom slider at the right of the viewport to zoom the map in and out.
●
You can use the mouse scrolling wheel to zoom the map in and out.
●
When the map is zoomed in to the innermost (closest) level, full details are displayed for each node (IP
address, name, and status icons). The port endpoints for each link are also displayed.
When the map is zoomed out to the outermost (farthest) level, only the status icons for the nodes, and
the links between nodes, are displayed. Device and port information can be displayed by moving the
cursor over a node or link of interest.

Focus Mode

Focus mode enables you to highlight and zoom in on a domain, to make the devices and links in that
domain easier to identify. There are two ways to enter Focus mode:
1 Click the domain name in Domains table under the Domains tab. (This also pops open the Domain
Details display.)
2 Move the cursor over a node in the domain to display the pop-up list of domain links, then right-
click on the link to the domain, or click the Focus mode button (
The Viewport will zoom in on the selected domain, highlighting the nodes and links in the selected
domain, while all nodes and links not in the selected domain are shown in grey.
In Focus mode, the status of the nodes in the domain reflect their status only within the selected
domain. For example, if a node is a member of two domains, and is a Master in one domain and a
Transit node in the other, its aggregate status is shown as Master on the EAPS map. However, if you
enter Focus mode for the domain in which that node is a Transit node, the status is shown as Transit for
as long as you maintain focus on that domain.
