As Optivity Switch Manager discovers devices, they are briefly arranged by default in a column (top to bottom/left to right) on the topology map. The figure below shows the Optivity Switch Manager contents pane after a seed address was located. This topology map is difficult to read. You can manually or automatically adjust the layout.
