One of the assigments of Network Manager is discovered devices belonging to managed networks, built topology maps of monitored networks and made visualization of discovered device states.

The product can gather information about networks from their nodes through SNMP protocol, and next it visualises the collected data through a graphic application which is a user friendly interface to the monitored network database.

Network Manager, on the base of its configuration files, can generate applications that are graphic interfaces that monitor work of devices on which SNMP agents work. Such interfaces usually show that parameters of devices, which are important in a given situation. Many interfaces to a particular device may exist at the same time (stored in separate files). The panels can be created and modified very easily by end-users. Main edition technique used to panels creation is, like in a different kind of graphic editors, using a mouse as main designed tool.
