Introduction to Network Maps
The Network Map is the set of devices that can be viewed in
Avaya Network Management Console. The Network File provides a
method of storing information about the devices in a Network Map. You
can create a number of Network Maps and save each one to a separate
file. This can be useful in maintaining backups when major changes are
made to the Network Map. When changes are made to a Network Map,
they are saved in the map’s Network File.
Devices can be imported into a Network Map from a text file. In
addition, you can export the Network Map for use with other
applications. For more information on exporting the current Network
Map, refer to
“Exporting the Network Map” on page 60
