Chapter 6. Customizing NNM from the GUI
One compelling aspect of NNM is that the administrator can customize submaps from within the GUI. Some of the customizations include adding background graphics, saving window placement, hiding symbols, and creating MIB applications.

In fact, many modifications can be made on the fly without exiting the NNM GUI or restarting processes.Sealey Inc. has a requirement to be able to make use of geographical bitmaps and customer floor plans.

However, because each operator has different responsibilities, they consider different devices to be mission critical. Therefore, each operator may want a slightly different view of the network.Sealey Inc. would also like to be able to graph SNMP MIB data real-time. Certain operators may frequently be required to access data from the same MIB variables. The network application should provide the ability to easily graph MIB data.
