Overview

Traverse can discover network topology using a variety of protocols such as CDP, ARP, routing tables, etc. and uses these topology dependencies for suppressing downstream alarms, root cause analysis, etc.

Through the Panorama module, Traverse displays a graphical representation of the devices in your network that are being monitored, including the status of the devices and the dependency relationships between them. Panorama offers four different topology layouts, flexible display filters, pan and zoom functionality, the ability to configure and save custom views, and the ability to add or remove device dependencies.

For detailed information about device dependencies (the relationships between devices) see Device Dependency.
