You can arrange individual switch icons in the topology display or allow SANsurfer 
Switch Manager to arrange all switch icons for you:
„

To move an individual switch icon, click and drag the icon to another location 
in the graphic window. Links stretch or contract to remain connected.

„

To arrange all switch icons in the topology display automatically, open the 
View menu and select Layout Topology.

By default, the Toggle Auto Layout box in the View menu is checked which 
causes SANsurfer Switch Manager to arrange the icons when you select Layout 
Topology.

You can save a custom arrangement, or layout, and restore that layout during a 
SANsurfer Switch Manager session. Begin by arranging the icons, then open the 
View menu and select Remember Layout. To restore the saved layout, open the 
View menu, uncheck the Toggle Auto Layout box, and select Layout Topology.

The topology display shows all switches that are able to communicate and all 
connections between switches. The faceplate display shows the front of a single 
switch and its ports. Menu options vary with each type of popup menu.
