Learn more about OpManager's features & functions Network topology, or network architecture, refers to the layout or organization of a network. Mapping and understanding the network topography is a critical part of network administration, monitoring, and management. It can help network administrators in the following ways:
  • Understand network organization: Mapping network topology enables network administrators to understand the bigger picture by providing a visual perspective of how the overall network infrastructure is organized. 
  • Gain in-depth visibility: Network management is all about being able to detect and eliminate network faults proactively. Network topology mapper helps network administrators gain in-depth visibility into their network, enabling them to categorize, classify, monitor, and manage their network infrastructure much more efficiently.

The network diagramming tool offered by OpManager helps large and enterprise level businesses simplify their network management process by visualizing the network in real time with the help of powerful network diagram tools.

OpManager leverages Layer2 Maps to act as a network topology mapping software that helps you to understand the topology organization of your Layer 2 networks by providing a real-time perspective of their interconnectivity. Layer2 Maps' powerful capabilities include the following:
  • Multiple Layer 2 perspectives for better visualization: OpManager's network visualization capabilities allows you to visualize your Layer 2 architecture in three modes: radial tree, node link, and balloon tree. This multi-perspective capability aims to provide network admins with a better understanding of the intra-device connectivity between their Layer 2 devices.
  • Import devices directly into OpManager: With Layer2 Maps, you can import critical Layer2 devices directly from the map into OpManager for further monitoring and management.
  • Export Layer2 Maps to Microsoft Visio or convert to Business Views: Network admins can further leverage the perspective provided by Layer2 Maps by either exporting the maps to Visio or converting them to a Business View.
