Perform To manage active highlights on a topology map to manage highlights on the topology map.

Note: RCA highlights on OSPF areas refer to interfaces on OSPF routers. If a router is also highlighted, an OSPF interface that is not displayed on the topology map may have a problem. When this occurs, the CPAM highlights only the router to indicate to the user that a problem exists with an interface on that router. This typically occurs when a CPAA discovers a router that is not managed by the NFM-P.
