OSPF topology map pop-up menus

Two types of pop-up menus are available in an OSPF topology map:

• Right-click a selected node in a map

  Opens a pop-up menu that enables you to select any of the map types available to the selected node (for example, OSPF Connectivity, OSPF Network Connectivity, Physical Connectivity, Group Membership), to display notification properties (if any) for the selected node, and so on. For a node marked with a plus sign (+), the Expand Map Element menu option allows you to expand the node to see all nodes that are physically or logically connected to the node.

  

• Right-click an open space in a map

  Opens a pop-up menu that enables you to display all routers that have a special routing-protocol role (for example, to display all OSPF Area Border Routers), to control whether the device-role labels appear for special routers (for example, ABR for an OSPF Area Border Router), and so on. The Reset map menu option enables you to reset changes made to the map or to return to the saved map.

  In the topology tree of a Map Console, a pop-up menu is also available when you right-click an object. This menu enables you to select any of the map types available to the selected object, to display notification properties (if any) for the selected object, and so on.

  The VMware Smart Assurance Service Assurance Manager Operator Guide provides detailed descriptions of map menus and pop-up menus available for the Map Console.
