Using attached lines

Attached lines illustrate arbitrary connections between devices. When you move two devices that are connected by attached lines, the attached lines also move. Attached lines are visual representations assigned by the user, and not a reflection of a true connection between the two devices--the true connection between devices is illustrated with Link lines.

To draw an attached line:

  1. In Map View, right-click a device. The right-click menu appears.
  2. Select Attach > Attach to. A line displays next to the cursor.
  3. Click the device icon to which you want to attach. WhatsUp Gold draws an attached line between the two devices.

Note: Each device can attach to a maximum of five different devices.
