About the NSM Topology Manager Toolbar
You can use the Topology Manager toolbar to perform the following actions:
• Zoom in and Zoom out : Use these tools to view the network topology according to the
detail required. These tools are only of use in the map view.
• Save to file
: Use this tool to save the network topology map as an image file and the
devices and links tables as text files from their respective views.
• Print
: From different views, you can use this tool to print a network topology map as
an image file and the devices and links tables as text files.
• Manage Devices: Use this tool to select one or more devices from a topology map and
manage them in NSM. This tool is applicable only to map views and not the different
table views. To add a device:

Manage Devices

Set Preferences:
Use this tool to set preferences according to which the discovery
engine can perform a topology discovery. You can set preferences for default SNMP
credentials, topology discovery intervals, and subnets to be included or excluded.
• Start and Stop Topology Discovery
: Use these tools to initiate and stop a topology
discovery based on the set of seed devices and credentials specified in the topology
preferences.
• Search : You can search for a device, end point device, link, or port in any of the table
views by providing a string in the search text box. NSM performs a sub string match
against all attributes of the particular view and displays the results in the same table.
If you navigate to another tab, your search results are lost. You can save the search
output in a text file as comma-separated values.
The Topology Manager status bar at the bottom of the screen indicates the time stamp
of the last completed topology discovery and whether a discovery is in progress.
