Introduction to the Network Tree
When viewing the network, you may want to view:
●
The structure of the network by subnet.
●
The information categorized by the different types of devices in the network.
●
The VoIP system view, which includes the voice elements in a data network, and the
relationships between VoIP registered endpoints, gatekeepers, and call managers.
Avaya Network Management Console’s user interface provides an integrated view of the
structure of the network, along with details about specific elements.
In addition, you may want to categorize the devices in your network by other criteria, such as
workgroups or location. Avaya Network Management Console allows you to create user defined
views of your network and assign devices to custom categories. You can create up to five
custom views of your network.
The left side of the user interface is the Network Tree. This provides a hierarchical view of the
network. The right side of the user interface contains the Network Table. Together, these views
provide details about specific elements in the network.
When an element in the tree is selected, the elements immediately below the selected element
appear in the Network Table. Elements in the Network Table are accompanied by fields
providing details about the elements.
