NetDoc User Guide
If the Horizontal Link category is selected, and you change to a different space on the
Navigator Tree, the information populating the List View and Detail View will change as you
move to the different space. If, for example, you move up to a higher level on the tree, all the
horizontal links for that level and space are shown in List View. Detail View will contain details
of the first record in that group by default, or the last record you highlighted.
Attachments
NetDoc has attachment capability that can be found throughout the application. This capability
can be found at every level of your infrastructure, along with everything being tracked about
your infrastructure, down to each individual component. An attachment can be added at any level
to better enhance your documentation needs.
An attachment may be any file needed to better illustrate needed information about your
network. These attachments may be network drawings, digital photos, MS Excel documents, MS
Word documents, and more. By using this capability and using it correctly, your documentation,
network drawings, photos, and all other needed files are stored in one easy-to-reach location.
