With ConnectNow technology, you can even automatically display the connections between network devices on your maps. Choose from several built-in geographic map templates or import a logical image of your own network based on floor, building, department, or larger geographic location. Multiple network maps can also be nested to provide drill-down capabilities.
In literally seconds, you can drag and drop devices into their appropriate locations on the network map so that you can view the health of all network devices at a specific location; then simply click the ConnectNow button to automatically discover and display the connections between your devices. Plus, Network Atlas enables you to create your network map locally on your desktop and then export the map to Orion NPM where it is immediately updated with the current status of the added nodes — that means no need to RDP to your server!
Orion NPM can also display specific network maps (and specific types of network information indicated on those maps) based on the viewer's authorization level or responsibility for particular regions of the network. For example, if a device fails within a particular subnet that a user is not authorized to access, then that user's map view will not go into alert condition, as the device is outside the scope of authorization.
