Hiding and Unhiding Details

You can create maps with more detail than you want to see, especially if your network contains one or more switches. This is because Intermapper periodically scans routers and switches and displays newly discovered interfaces. If you delete a network oval from the map, Intermapper no longer polls the associated interfaces.

• Use the Delete command to delete one or more networks. Select the networks you do not want to see and select Delete from the Edit menu or press the Delete key on your keyboard. Intermapper does not poll interfaces for deleted networks.
  
• Use the Create sub-maps to hide details, but continue to monitor its state and view it occasionally. You can create separate maps containing the details you want to hide and make a new map with devices which use the Map Status probe. Each device represents a submap.
• Use the Interfaces window to hide or show interfaces. When you hide an interface, it is no longer polled and alerts are not sent.
