IntraVUE makes extensive use of colors.
In addition to this help page, a video showing Use of Colors is available on the 2nd installation CD.
A node represents a device and is a rectangle in the IntraVUE display.
The node may have one of 3 fill colors and one of 4 outline colors
NODE FILL COLORS
Newly discovered devices and devices that have not been verified by the administrator appear in a light brown color.
Once a device has been verified by the administrator the node will be blue.
A normal network should have all the device nodes in blue. If a new device joins the network it will be easy to spot the light brown box.
If an Admin Verified device moves, the verified position will be represented by a red filled box (blue changes to red).
At the new location, a new, unverified node will be placed representing the actual location of a device. See AdminVerify for more details.
NODE OUTLINE COLORS
A device that has never been detected to support SNMP has a black outline.
A device which currently has SNMP communication with IntraVUE has a green outline
If the last 2 SNMP queries timed out, the event will be logged and the device will get a red outline until SNMP is regained.
Nodes that have been selected with a left click have a heavy blue outline.
Notice the 10.1.1.106 in the picture above has lost SNMP and is NOT selected, the other nodes are selected.
CONNECTING LINE COLORS
Five line colors are supported in IntraVUE.
GREEN - indicates a device is currently connected and capable of communicating.
YELLOW - indicates one of the threshold factors for this line is over the threshold condition.
RED - means the device is currently disconnected and not responding to pings.
BLACK - is used when you manually insert a node and there are no pingable devices below it.
BLUE - means the line is selected by a left click.
A dashed instead of solid line indicates that the device is a wireless device.
