Cisco ANA maintains a real-time, autodiscovered, physical and logical inventory of the network
elements and the relationships among them. Cisco ANA automatically reflects every addition, deletion,
and modification that occurs in the network. MPLS VPN logical inventory information displayed in the
inventory window changes according to the item selected in the tree pane.
To view the Cisco ANA inventory window:
Step 1 Right-click a device in the Cisco ANA NetworkVision tree or map pane and choose Inventory.
The device logical and physical inventories are presented in the inventory window (Figure 5-1). The
window title bar displays the name of the device whose logical and physical properties are displayed.
The tree pane displays the logical and physical inventory categories in tree and branch representation. If
you choose Logical Inventory or Physical Inventory in the tree pane, the logical and physical container
categories appear in the Cisco ANA tree pane. For logical inventory, the containers are traffic containers,
forwarding component containers, and tunnel containers.
The properties pane (located in the Cisco ANA window workspace) displays physical and logical
inventory information relating to the properties of the item selected in the tree pane.
Step 2 To view MPLS VPN logical inventory properties, do one of the following in the Cisco ANA Logical
Inventory tree pane:
• Click an MPLS VPN logical inventory branch to display the MPLS VPN logical inventory properties
in the Cisco ANA workspace, or

properties appear in a separate [logical inventory branch name] Properties window.
