Export Topology

To export the Topology, click Export, which downloads an Excel spreadsheet. To identify the file, the filename ends in a timestamp string that is in the format yyymmddhhmmss.

The spreadsheet contains four sheets: Devices, Links, Gigamon Devices, and Discovered Links. The Gigamon Devices and Discovered Links pages are informational only. You can use the Devices and Links sheets for modifying and then import the information back to the GigaVUE‑FM Topology. The format of the Gigamon Devices page is the same as the Gigamon Table View in the UI (refer to Table View).

Export exports all the manual links and manual nodes in a topology. Aggregated links are exported as the individual links of the aggregation. When exporting from the Cluster view, the expanded view of the aggregated links is exported.
