directly to the device CLI. You must enable the MRP trap on the devices so that the Management

instructions, refer to your hardware’s configuration guide.

• Product List — The top left pane displays a list of all MRP rings (topology tree) discovered in the
network that are in your AOR. Each ring is identified by its ring number. Double-click a ringin the
Product List to display the devices in the MRP ring. The Management application has a Search
tool that you can use to find a device quickly. (Refer to
“Using the Search tool” on page 53 for
more information.)
When you select a ring in the Product List, the application displays the ring in the Topology
Map. When you select a device in the Product List, the application highlights the device on the
Topology Map as well.
• Topology Map — The right pane displays the devices in a MRP ring using graphic elements
(icons). Links between devices running FDP or LLDP display automatically on the topology
maps.
