What is Network Topology?
Updated over 2 years ago

Network topology is a powerful tool to provide administrators a graphic overview of the logical network topology and the status of network devices.

For example, you can use this screen to view the topology of an Org/Network through EnGenius Cloud. Click Manage > Topology to access this screen and double-click the organization/hierarchy view/network on the tree to change the scope.
