Nodes

A node in the network represents a host or switch/router.

To Add a Node

Use the right mouse button in the Network View, and select the command Add Node Here.

To Delete a Node

Colors of the node. To change the node position, press the left mouse button on the node icon and drag the node to the desired position.
