A Choice of Layouts
Manager/One gives you the option of changing its layout (the way you see your
network) from a Flat View, as shown in Figure 27, to a Logical Mesh Topology View,
which will be referred to simply as the Logical View from this point forward. The
logical view uses SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) technology, so you will need the
Adobe® SVG plug-in which can be downloaded from http://www.adobe.com/svg/.
The primary difference between the two layouts is how the logical view offers an
immediate snapshot of your Access/One Network’s topology—the interconnectivity
between wireless network nodes and other wired network components, such as a
router or Ethernet switch. The logical view also offers some additional navigational
features (discussed later in this chapter). But regardless of which view you are
looking at, Manager/One retains all of its functionality—the logical view is simply
providing you with another way of looking at the same thing. The following graphic
shows the subnet used in Figure 28, but in its logical view format.
