Display interface performance in links on the maps in the SolarWinds Platform

Map links can show either interface utilization or interface connection speed. A legend is available to interpret colors representing interface performance data.

  1. Expand Connection Display Options in the bottom left pane.
  2. Select display options:
    • Show Link Speed provides interface connection speed information in colored links.
    • Show Link Utilization provides interface utilization information in colored links. This option is default on new maps.

      Utilization data is not shown for manually created links.

    • Don't Show Additional Info provides only interface UP/DOWN status information on device links. This is the default option for previously created maps.
    • Include Link Labels enables or disables displaying connection labels.
