Network Visualization Options

To access the Topology page, select Observability > Network > Topology.

The Topology page displays the devices, links, sites, and tunnels in your network in graphical and tabular formats. Users with Super User, Network Admin, and Observer roles can monitor the WAN links through the interactive topology map that enables you to customize the view of devices and links across sites. The network table lists the devices, links, sites, and tunnels in your network topology.

The Topology page can be divided into three main components:

Interactive Topology Map—Enables you to view devices, links, and tunnels across sites in your network and customize the map display. Manage the map view, set device positions on the map, customize device and link labels and font size using the right click menu. For more information, see View Network Topology Details.
Topology Menu Bar—A vertical bar at the top-right corner of the Topology page, which consists of the following:
- Reset icon—Center the topology map so that it zooms to fit the screen.
- Plus icon—Zoom in (enlarge) the topology map.
- Minus icon—Zoom out (reduce) the topology map.
- Switch to Cluster View/Node View icon—Switch to Cluster View from the default Node View.
  
  In the Node View, all devices are displayed. When devices and links are in proximity in the map, they may overlap with each other and clutter the map. To reduce clutter, you can switch to the Cluster View to collapse devices and links in the topology map into clusters and bundles, respectively. For more information, see Cluster View.
- Settings icon—Configure display properties of the topology map. You can also specify the neighbor (peer) IP address and autonomous system (AS) number so that Paragon Automation can establish a BGP-LS peering session and enables you to view live changes in your network.
Network Table— Displays detailed information about network devices, links, sites, and tunnels. Click the collapsible arrow icon at the bottom-left of the topology map to display or hide the network table.

For more information, see Network Table Overview.
