How to insert a link to another map (7.x-8.x)

Applies to 8.x 7.x

You can add a link to another map on a map from IP Networks or Custom Views section .

By creating map links on different maps, you can display those maps without having to find them in the Network Atlas window first.

To quickly display a map in the Main window, double-click its link icon visible on any other map.

The link icon representing another map also changes colors to indicate the present status of the map:

  • If the icon is displayed in the default color, it means all nodes belonging to the map are up.
  • If the icon changes to yellow color, it means at least one node is in a warning state or at least one is down.
  • if the link icon changes to red, all of its nodes are down.

To insert a link to another map:

  1. Select a map from the Network Atlas window.
  2. In the Edit menu point to the Insert and select the Link to Map item.
  3. In the Insert Link to the Map window, select the map to which you want to create a link. Click OK.

Note: The newly created map link will be positioned randomly on the map. To position the map link in the desired place, click the Edit Map icon, and then drop it into the desired position.
