See Link Discovery Prerequisites on page 181 for a list of device features that provide link information. Links discovered can also appear in the screen described in Links in Visualization on page 224. When you elect to discover links from a right-click menu, the Network Link Discovery screen appears.

Depending on the layer selected, the available types appear as checkboxes below this tab selection. Tip Click All / None to select all or none of the displayed types for each layer.
