Creating the Network Panel
The following sections explain how to create the Network panel of the Network application. As you can see from the illustration below, this panel contains:
An entry field that shows the name of the current network.
A table that represents a network with its main components, that is, domains. Dots appearing in the table cells are hyper-references. Double-clicking on a hyper-reference opens the view related to the pointed object.
For example, if you double-click on the cell at the intersection of Domain#1 and Nodes, you open the panel displaying the nodes that belong to Domain#1.
