Navigation tree toolbar
General information
A toolbar in the NFM-P navigation tree window contains the view selector, the Make Root At Top Level icon, the Copy to Clipboard icon, and the Find icon. The Find field is located below the navigation tree toolbar.
View selector
The view selector is a drop-down menu that lists the physical and logical network views available in the main navigation tree window.
You can choose the following views:
-
Equipment—displays the physical objects that the NFM-P manages
-
Routing—displays the device routing instances and child objects, such as the network interfaces and the configured protocols
-
Ring Group—displays the ring group objects that the NFM-P manages
-
Cloud Network—displays DC POD or interconnect management entities
Make Root At Top Level icon
The root is the highest-level object in the tree. When Equipment is selected in the view selector, you can change the root of the tree to reduce the display of objects in the tree.
The Make Root At Top Level icon restores the navigation tree to the default Network root when a lower-level object is the current root.
See To change the root object of a navigation tree for information about changing the root object of the navigation tree.
Copy to Clipboard icon
You can use the Copy to Clipboard icon to copy the property form identifier for one or more objects in the tree to the NFM-P clipboard. You can use the clipboard to open forms, send identifiers to other users, and configure search filters. On the topology map, you can use the clipboard to search for objects and create physical links; see Chapter 4, Topology map management .
