VPN Topology Connections
Tree Pane
The Cisco ANA NetworkVision tree pane displays the VPN business elements in a tree and branch
representation. Each business element is represented by an icon in a color that reflects the highest alarm
severity. The icon might have a management state icon or alarm. Table 1-3 shows the tree and map pane
icons.
Management state icons, shown in Table 1-4, can also appear in MPLS VPN service view maps.
The highest level of the tree pane displays the root or map name. The branches display the VPN and
aggregated business elements as well as their names. The Layer 3 VPN sub branch displays the virtual
routers and sites contained in the VPN along with the names of the business elements. In addition, CE
devices can also be displayed in the Layer 3 VPN sub branches. The Layer 2 VPN sub branches display
the LCAs and LCPs contained in the VPN along with the names of the business elements. In addition,
CE devices can also be displayed in the Layer 2 VPN sub branches. If you select an aggregated business
element in the tree pane, the map pane displays the business elements contained within the aggregated
business element.
