Manually Graphing the Components
You must manually place each Unified Switch on the graph because the switch does not contain any radios.
Click the IP address of the switch in the Switches window for ungraphed components and drag it to its
approximate location on the graph. When you release the mouse button, an icon that represents the switch
appears on the graph.

Edit > Un-Graph

component returns to the appropriate window in the ungraphed components area.
