Hosts and groups in the Network topology can be repositioned to create a clearer and more useful layout.

Edit Mode

The Edit button is located at the top of the topology. When enabled, the topology becomes editable and hosts and VLANs can be moved or modified.

Moving Hosts

1. Select Edit
2. Select the desired host
3. Drag the host to the desired location
4. Click Save

Moving VLANs

1. Select Edit
2. Select the desired VLAN
3. Drag the VLAN to the desired location
4. Click Save

Expanding and Collapsing Groups

To reduce visual clutter, groups can be expanded or collapsed. VLANs, subnets, and external hosts support this behavior.

1. Select Edit
2. Identify the group you'd like to expand/collapse
3. Right-click on the group
4. Select Expand/Collapse Group
5. Select Save

Changing VLAN Colors

Colors can be assigned to VLANs to make them easier to distinguish.

1. Select  Edit
2. Right-click on the desired VLAN
3. Select Color
4. Select the desired color
5. Select Save

Network View Settings

The display of the Network topology can be customized via the Network View Settings button. Configurable features include 2D or 3D rendering, Projection orientation, Hosts labeling, traffic flow Projection, Traffic View, Visibility Settings, View Controls.

3D View

3D view gives a 3 dimensional rendering of the topology. It allows for traffic flow animation. To visualize flow select traffic from the Timeline. Traffic is color coded by the protocol type, and and if packet traffic view is selected, its volume is represented by a one-to-one correlation of traffic flow on the arcs.

Note: Traffic animation requires Dev Mode to be enabled in Advanced settings.

Projection

Flat Projection displays hosts in a bird’s-eye view, which is useful for large or dense topologies.

Isometric Projection displays hosts on a two-dimensional isometric plane, allowing more hosts to fit into a smaller visual area.

Flat Arcs and Parabolic Arcs alter the shape and size for selected traffic flows.

Hosts

The vulnerability score and host name can be toggled to reveal/hide. The vulnerability score is based on identified CVEs and vulnerability scanners.

Traffic View

Traffic animation can be customized to visualize Flows or  individual Packets.

Tactical Platforms

Controls for adjusting the visibility and tracking of physical assets.

Visibility Settings

• Show Empty VLANs: Renders VLANs with no active hosts or traffic as empty groups.
• Simple Layout: Uses simplified layout logic to reduce CPU usage in large projects.
• Skip Layout: Disables layout logic to maintain acceptable performance in exceptionally large projects.

View Controls

Additional settings that manage how the network topology is displayed.

Layout Controls

Preset configurations for customizing the network topology layout.

Network Taps

The TAP displays all known tap points and their visibility on the network topology.

Select TAP to view the dropdown menu:

• Show Known Tap Points: toggles visibility of all tap icons on the topology.
• Show Tap Limits: toggles visibility of the tap perimeter bubbles on the topology.

If a tap's location is known, the tap icon appears on the topology along with edges connecting it to the next-hop VLANs. Taps are blue by default. If a tap's location is unknown, only the edges will display, and its full potential origin displays as a perimeter limit.

Editing a Tap

1. Select TAP → the target tap → Edit

2. Enter a name in the Name field
3. Select the Location field to open a searchable dropdown of router hosts discovered on the network, or select Unknown Location
4. Select a Color for the tap
5. Select Save

Once a location is assigned, the tap icon appears on the topology at that host.

Minimap

The minimap is a small interactive replica of topology that allows users to quickly navigate within the topology. Its size and position can be adjusted in this panel.

Drag within the minimap to move around the topology, and scroll to zoom in and out.
