Rediscovering the network map

After you have specified discovery preferences on the Preferences dialog box, you can rediscover the network at any time using those settings.

To rediscover the network:

1. On the Optivity Switch Manager toolbar, click Discover Map.

Or, from the Optivity Switch Manager menu bar, choose Actions > Discover Map.

An alert box opens to advise you that the submanagers must be reloaded, and to prompt whether you want to continue.

2. Click Yes to proceed.

Optivity Switch Manager reloads topology information from the network devices, and refreshes the topology map with it.

See Optivity Switch Manager menu bar commands and toolbar buttons for more information.
