Using Maps & Lists
Using Maps
A map is simple graphical view of the network discovery or of the manual nodes that you have added. It is a document, a container, in which nodes with any address can be grouped. Nodes a connected with a line symbolizing the network connection. Currently no other representation is available (no free design of the sites, buildings, rooms).
- Nodes are sorted using the order that you specify in the Display Toolbar.
- The number of nodes in the map in shown in the status bar (on the left)
- Nodes are displayed with one of the fixed built-in icons
- The number of nodes on a line depends on the screen width, and you can choose either a fixed map layout or a maps resizing with their window(the default)
- There is always only one selected active node, surrounded with a little box
- Double clicking on a node will show the node's properties
- You can change the color of every component of the map and the font used for labels
- The layout of the map is used when you export to EMF format
- Several maps, and/or several views of the same map, can be loaded simultaneously
- Several maps can be grouped with the merge menu
Monitoring
When monitoring is Active, colors will added the each of the node, reflecting their current state.
Use Lists
Lists are the best way to show synthetic information on nodes.
To view one of the 9 available lists:

or
- Select the menu Lists
and choose one of the following item:
- Standard List
- MAC Addresses List
- SNMP List
- Port Analysis List
- Port Scan List
- WMI List
- NetBIOS List
- Summary List
- Address and Routes List
- You can change the content of the first 8 lists using the List Editor.
- To print a list, choose File, Print (or Print Preview). The currently selected list (focus on screen) will be printed.
- The order in a list in the order used in its map, both are synchronized.
