Distribute Nodes

You can select multiple nodes on the topology map and redistribute them to improve visual clarity or for personal preference. You can select all the nodes in the topology to apply a distribution model, or you can select a subset such as edge devices or core devices.

After selecting the nodes, right-click and choose one of the models described in Table 1.

Table 1: Node Distribution Models
