Building Your Network Map 6-9

Creating Network Maps

Once you have created the new map, it displays in the appropriate place in the Map View

tree hierarchy.

The New Map View window allows you to set a variety of display and print options for

your map. To create a map file, you need only assign a unique name; the name and any

other map parameters can be changed later by accessing the Map Properties window (see

Editing Map Properties, page 6-12, for more information). The following sections

describe how to set map parameters.

Setting Basic Map Options

NetSight Element Manager allows you to set a variety of display and print options for

each map or submap you create. You can set these options when you first create a map or

submap (via the New Map View window illustrated in Figure 6-4, above) or at any time

after a map or submap has been created (via the Map View Properties window, described

in Editing Map Properties, page 6-12). Among the properties that you can set are its

background image and/or color, background grid settings, and print options. You can also

select a font for icon labels, and lock the map so that it cannot be altered or deleted.

When you have finished setting map parameters, click on OK to set your changes, or on

Cancel to cancel them and exit the New Map View window.

Selecting a Background Color or Image

You can assign a color or a bitmap image to the map’s background, as follows:

1. To choose background color for the Map window:

a. Select the Color option; note that when you select the Color option, the

Bitmap fields are grayed out.

b. Click Set Color. The Color window (Figure 6-5) opens.

TIP

For more information on the Lock feature, see Protecting Your Maps from Editing: The

Lock Feature, page 6-60.
