The following preparations are required to add display content to the Network Map.
Register LAN switches (LAN switch blades included in a chassis or external switches)
For details on the registration method, refer to "5.5.2 Registering LAN Switches".
Register network devices or phycial network links
For details on the registratiomethod, refer to "5.7 Registering Network Devices".
Note
If no LAN switch blades have been registered, only network links between external LAN switches will be displayed. If only one external switch is registered, no network links will be displayed at all.
If a non-supported LAN switch is registered, network links may not be properly displayed for that switch.
The Network Map cannot display network links between BX600 GbE Switch Blade 30/12 and the following LAN switch blades:
PY CB Eth Switch/IBP 1Gb 36/12
PY CB Eth Switch/IBP 1Gb 36/8+2
PY CB Eth Switch/IBP 1Gb 18/6
Network links between two supported LAN switches may not be displayed properly if an unregistered or un-supported LAN switch is placed between them.
Example
In such a case, the following inconsistencies may be displayed. A LAN switch port maybe seen as being connected to multiple switches (multiple links are shown attached to that switch port).
