Customizing Your Map
In addition to the manageable nodes described in the sections above, your maps can also
contain a variety of non-manageable graphical objects that can help you create a better
visual display of your network configuration. Alignment and layering tools are also
provided that allow you to organize and align map objects with the click of a mouse
button. Drawing, layering, and alignment tools are available either from the toolbar (see
Figure 6-20
) or from the
Draw
and
Layout
menus on the primary window menu bar.
Click on the tabs
to display the four
different pages
available in the
Device Properties
window.
