Viewing Topology Map Service Details in a Pop-Up Dialog Box
In the Topology View of Build mode, the upper portion of the page shows the topology map, which is the main display area. In this area, you can click or right-click the dotted connecting links, which represent the services configured across devices, to view the service details. The pop-up menu is accessed by double-clicking a group in the center pane that shows the topology map. Mouse over a service on the map to display a pop-up menu for that service.
The topology map enables you to obtain a comprehensive view of services configured on devices in the entire network. Because you can narrow down to a specific service that is of relevance to you in the topology map, you can easily view important configuration specifications of a service, such as the type of service, the customer with which the service is associated, whether the service is successfully deployed or is pending deployment, and whether the service is in the requested, scheduled, or pending status. Such salient service-specific details enable you to obtain a comprehensive view of the health of services, and navigate to the Service View in Deploy mode to modify the service settings for debugging and corrective action.
Right-clicking the map area displays a pop-up menu for more functions. You can move the map by holding down and dragging the left mouse button. You can zoom in and out by using the mouse scroll wheel. Double-click an element icon to collapse the devices or network elements and view the entire site or zone as an icon.
Mouse over the dotted lines that denote the services configured across different endpoints on the topology map and click the service to display a menu. The following fields are displayed in the pop-up dialog box when you mouse over the service:
Name—Name of the configured service
Customer Name—Name of the customer for which the service is configured
Service Type—Type of the configured service, such as E-LINE Martini, IP, or E-LAN
Service State—State of the service, such as whether the service is deployed or not
Service Status—Status of the service, such as whether the service is in requested, scheduled, or pending status
View Details—Detailed information about the selected service. Click the link in View Details to open a pop-up dialog box that displays these details.
