View Topology ​

Topology provides a visual view of network connections.

Key Features ​

  • Layout at a glance: Shows how resources are connected as a diagram, in the order external network → router → internal network and subnet → load balancer.
  • Summary: The number of subnets, networks, and load balancers is shown under the title.
  • Search: Find and highlight resources by name or ID.
  • Quick navigation: Click a node to check the resource information and its connected resources.

Title and summary ​

The screen title, the refresh button, and a summary of how many resources are drawn.

Title and summary
No.FeatureItemDescription
1-1TitleNetwork Topology· The screen title.
1-2RefreshRefresh button· Reloads the topology data.
1-3SummaryResource counts· The number of subnets, internal networks (VPCs), and load balancers. If any subnet is in an error state, that count is shown too.

The summary looks like "12 subnets across 9 VPCs • 11 LBs". VPC here means an internal network.

Enter a name or ID and choose the resource type shown below; matching nodes are highlighted in the diagram.

Search
  1. Enter a name or ID in the search box.
  2. In the list that appears below, choose the resource type to search (External network, Router, Internal network, Subnet, Load Balancer).
  3. Matching nodes are highlighted in the diagram, and the number of matches (for example, "3 matches") is shown under the title. If nothing matches, "No matches" is shown.

Zoom and display level ​

Shows the current zoom and its display level (Compact, Medium, Full). It is an indicator, not a button; it changes as you zoom with the mouse wheel.

Zoom and display level

The amount of information in the diagram depends on the zoom. The level changes automatically with the zoom; you do not choose it.

LevelZoomWhat is shown
CompactBelow 60%Nodes are shown as dots only. Use it to see the whole layout.
Medium60% to below 100%Node names and status indicators (a small dot next to the node) are shown.
Full100% and aboveExtra information such as the subnet CIDR and load balancer VIP appears under the name.

Topology diagram ​

Draws the connections from top to bottom: external network → router → internal network (shaded box) and subnet → load balancer.

No.FeatureItemDescription
4-1LegendLegend· The resource type each node color stands for (External network, Router, Subnet, Load Balancer).
4-2MinimapOverview· A miniature of the whole diagram. Drag the inner rectangle to move the visible area.

The legend colors distinguish the node types.

ElementDescription
External networkThe network that provides external connectivity. Placed at the top.
RouterThe router that connects the external network and subnets
Internal networkThe lightly shaded box around subnets. It is not in the legend, but each box is one network.
SubnetA subnet inside a network
Load BalancerA load balancer attached to a subnet

Move around the diagram as follows.

ActionHow

Node information card ​

The card that opens where you click a node. The example is a load balancer node.

5-2Connected resourcesView detail· Opens the list of connected resources (listeners in the example).

Values such as the ID can be copied with the copy button next to them. The bottom of the card shows the number of connected resources; which ones you can see depends on the node type.
