What is the info panel?

Interacting with the info panel

The info panel displays on the right of various views and offers details about a selected object in maps, diagrams, lists, or graphs.

In most cases, the panel expands by default when opening a view. If it doesn’t, it can be displayed with png4.png or hidden with png5.png. The info panel can also be expanded by clicking png6.png (Summary); however, it can only be collapsed using png5.png.

The info panel’s png6.png (Summary) provides more in-depth information about a selected object. This can be, for example, an NE in a list or an object in a map or diagram. Depending on context, the info panel may also display information such as png7.png (Legend), png8.png (Watched Filters), png9.png (Mediation Policies), png10.png (Reachability Policies), and so on.
