Configuring Map Preferences
Click on the Preferences button in the Network Topology Maps page to launch the Server Settings page. The Server
Settings page lets you select display characteristics for maps. These settings control how maps appear to console
sessions. An individual console session (user) can override some of the map settings using the View button in the
map window.
You can select what devices you would like displayed in your map:
Switches
Maps for switches and bridges are automatically created.
Hubs
Maps for switches, bridges and hubs are automatically created. This is the default
setting.
All Nodes
Maps displaying all end nodes are automatically created.
Using the Server Settings dialog, you may also choose the style of map layout that you prefer (Hierarchical,
Circular, Symmetric, or Orthogonal), cluster size, and spacing.
You must stop and restart services for new map settings to take effect. To start/stop Toptools services, select the
Settings button in the Navigation Panel and click on Toptools Services.
