Minimap

The Minimap, which displays in the lower right corner of the main window, is useful for getting a
bird’s-eye view of the topology, or to quickly jump to a specific place on the topology. To jump to a
specific location on the topology, click that area on the Minimap. A close-up view of the selected
location displays on the topology.

Use the Minimap to view the entire topology and to navigate more detailed map views. This feature
is especially useful if you have a large topology. Does not display until you discover a device.
