Filtering Links, LSPs, and Services by Using the Topology Map Node Shortcut Menu
In a network topology that contains a large number of links configured among devices or nodes, it might be necessary to hide some of the links to avoid a cluttered view of multiple connector lines and display only the links that are of relevance for your network administration tasks. Also, you might need to filter LSPs and services for a particular device or node to selectively display only the LSPs and services configured for that device or node. You can obtain such a restricted set of necessary links, LSPs, and services by using the shortcut menu for each device or node.
To obtain a filtered display of LSPs, links, and services for a particular node in the Topology View:
- From the Junos Space user interface, click the Build icon on the Connectivity Services Director banner.
The workspaces that are applicable to Build mode are displayed on the Tasks pane.
- From the View selector, select Topology View.
The topology map of the sites or zones and the devices configured in each zone using the CSD-Topology is displayed on the upper portion of the page. A table with details of devices, services, links, and LSPs is displayed on the lower portion of the page.
- Select the Devices tab on the lower portion
of the page.
The configured device details are displayed in a table.
- Select the check boxes beside the devices that you want
to view on the topology map.
The selected devices in the corresponding zones or custom groups are displayed on the topology map.
- Mouse over a node icon or set of nodes and right-click
to display a menu.
When you mouse over a device or a node, the name of the device or node is displayed as a tooltip.
The following options are available on the shortcut menu when you right-click each device or node:
Select Device Highlights the device to indicate that it has been selected among other nodes displayed in the Topology View
Show Links Displays the current route and the defined routes (for example, primary and backup) of the given tunnel in the Topology View. If multiple tunnels are selected, their primary paths are highlighted in the Topology View, and the tunnel currently selected in the path window is highlighted with a different color.
Hide Links Removes the connector lines that are displayed to signify the links from the selected or source device to destination pairs of all tunnels on the topology map
Filters > Filter LSPs Displays the LSPs that match the filter criteria that you specified for LSPs, such as whether LSPs that are up or down must be displayed, and whether delegated LSPs, CSD-Topology–initiated or PCEP–initiated LSPs, or router–initiated or PCC–initiated LSPs must be displayed.
Filters > Filter Services Displays the services that match the filter criteria that you specified for services, such as whether E-Line, IP, or E-LAN services must be displayed
