Create a Visualization Map Based on Device Attributes

Select

Device Visualization

.

This page contains all saved device visualization maps so that you can return to view them later by clicking

View Map

for the ones you want to see.

Create a device visualization map.

Click

+ New Visualization

and enter the following:

Name

: Enter a name for the map

Description

: Optionally enter a description of the visualization map for later reference.

Build scope

: Use filters to set parameters for the map. A map can contain up to 5000 devices, so define a scope to keep the number of devices within this range. You can narrow the scope by filtering devices by type as well as by various device, alert, and vulnerability attributes. This filtering behaves much like the query builder.

Visualization methods

:

Device Attribute View

The visualization method you select determines the type of map you create. To create a device visualization map based on device attributes, select

Device Attribute View

. First, group devices by one of these device attributes:

Category

,

Profile

,

Vendor

,

Subnet

, or

VLAN ID

. Then, optionally, depending on the attribute you used, organize them within each first-layer group by another type of attribute in a second layer:

First set of groups	Second set of groups (optional)
Category	–
Profile	–
Vendor	Risk Level
Subnet	Category or Profile
VLAN ID	Category or Profile

Click

Create

. It might take several minutes to build a new visualization. The build time is a function of the number of rendered devices and complexity of the map.

IoT Security opens the device visualization map in a new browser tab.

For example, if you set the first set of groups as

Subnet

and the second set of groups as

Category

, you’ll create a map that first shows devices organized into various subnets. Then if you navigate to the second layer of the map by clicking one of the subnets, you’ll see devices grouped by device category within it.



For maps with two layers of groups, you can switch layers by clicking the down arrow next to the visualization method in the upper right of the map and then choosing the reversed order.



For example, if you choose

Category, Subnet

, the map switches the first layer to categories and the second layer to subnets.
