Displaying the Network Hop View related to an event

Display the Network Hop View related to an event to see the affected network device in context. This shows the network device affected by an event together with a network map of the connected devices. You can also specify a number of hops, or device connections, from the affected device.

1. From an Event Viewer window, right-click an event and click Find in Network Hop View.
   The Network Hop View opens in a separate browser window. The network map is centered around the device affected by the selected event. The Seed device field is populated with the IP address of the device on which the alert was raised.

   You can select multiple devices to display in the Network Hop View. You can either press Ctrl and click the devices or drag a box around them with the mouse to select multiple devices. The number of devices that you can select is limited by the topoviz.hopview.maximum.seeds property in topoviz.properties. The default value for this property is 10. If it is negative, the number of devices that you can select is unlimited.

2. Use the navigation features in the Network Hop View toolbar to move around the network.
