Topology View

From here, users can see a visual view of the topology of all supported devices in the network. The EWS switch automatically maps your network deployment and displays the device relationships across your network infrastructure—an essential feature for troubleshooting network issues that would otherwise require manual mapping, monitoring software, or manually keeping track of MAC address tables.

Use the directional pad and the plus or minus buttons to navigate your topology view of the network. You can also search access points in the network via their IP or MAC address. Check the Show Port Info box to display connected port information.

• Mouse over a device to show information about the device.

• Left-click on the switch to bring up a menu where you can redirect to switch or collapse the topology tree.

• Left-click on the access point to bring up a menu where you can configure AP settings, remove AP from management list, reboot AP, redirect to the active clients page or redirect to troubleshooting page.

• You can search for an access point using the IP Address or MAC address.

• Click on to show or hide port information on the Controller.

Click on for the controller to save the current network topology. Changes will be displayed upon detecting a topology change.

Note: The EWS switch can only generate topologies with EnGenius L2 Series switches.
