New UI Impact Series - Topology Node Grouping
Next up in our series is Topology Node Grouping. This new feature allows users to dynamically group nodes in saved topology maps based on up to three levels of property metadata. By leveraging tags and labels stored as LogicMonitor properties, you can now organize your complex network maps into intuitive, property-based clusters.The groups are automatically color-coded according to alert status, providing an instant visual indicator of potential issues within specific node groups. So, how does this help you troubleshoot more efficiently? In complex network environments, identifying the severity level and location of issues can be like finding a needle in a haystack. Topology Node Grouping transforms this process, allowing you to quickly assess the 'blast radius' of any network problem. For instance, in a map of virtual machines, grouping by location could instantly reveal that all alerts originate from a specific data center. This level of clarity, which would have required extensive zooming and manual inspection in the past, is now available at a glance. By speeding up the identification of affected areas, Topology Node Grouping enables IT professionals to respond more swiftly and effectively to network issues, potentially reducing downtime and improving overall network performance.
