Traverse > Monitoring > Network Map
The Network Map displays a graphical representation of network topology and the devices in your network that are being monitored, including the status of the devices and the dependency relationships between them.
This view 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. From this view you can drill down and work with the specific device and the tests provisioned on that device.

Working with dependencies
Dependencies are provided to suppress alerts in child devices when their parent device encounters an alert condition.
When one device depends on another, a line connects the parent and child devices in the Network map, with the corkscrew end of the line leading to the child.
Dependencies are created in two ways:
To edit Device Dependencies
Click the icon in Network Map to manually change dependencies in a topology.
Once devices are linked by dependencies, you can expand or collapse a hierarchy by clicking the or icon next to a parent node.
