Title: topology map in java console
Post by: moseszero on December 06, 2011, 09:33:22 AM
Hi,
In java console(1.1.6),when right click a node(centos 5.5) and choose "Layer 2 Topology",it always  encounters a mistake with a tip"Cannot get layer 2 topology for localhost.localdomain: Node has no support for layer 2 topology discovery".

I want to get node's topology map,what is the right way to do that?

You can get network topology only from devices supporting one of topology discovery protocols: CDP, LLDP, or SONMP (NDP). Usually it is supported only on network devices.

Best regards,
Victor

In Legacy NetXMS console(C++),there is  a tag "Dependants",how to get this kind of relation map?is it simply to find parent object and child parent?

Currently there no such view in Java console. I'll add it to my to-do list.
