They do not seem to be able to display only items attached to a single switch at a time.<br />
For example: We have 6 switches. I select a switch as the seed node for an IP topology map. No matter what switch I select, it shows all of the machines in the network, even if I set the map options to topology radius discovery of 1.<br />
Also, when I want to find what switch port something is connected to, I either get the port that goes to the switch the device is connected to (if not the same switch I am looking at), or something like the node is indirectly connected to network switch xxx port gi0/1 (the link to another switch), or connection point information cannot be found.</p>
<p dir="auto">Attached is a screenshot of a map with the topology set to 1. from a single switch as the seed node. The devices seen are from ALL the switches <img src="https://forum.netxms.org/assets/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji/emoji/android/1f61b.png?v=72b86a538fc" class="not-responsive emoji emoji-android emoji--stuck_out_tongue" style="height:1.4em;width:auto;vertical-align:middle" title=":P" alt="😛" /></p>
<p dir="auto">Is there a cisco setting I need to apply to get the topology to report correctly?</p>

<p dir="auto">Assuming you want to see the switches per tower as well as all connected devices, the following should work:</p>
<p dir="auto">In the properties of each switch in tower 1, select Location. For the sake of this example, set Street Address to "Tower 1".<br />
Create a new network map, map type Layer 2 Topology. Select one of the switches in Tower 1 as Seed Node.</p>
<p dir="auto">Now right-click the map, select Properties -&gt; Object Filter and paste the following:</p>
<pre><code>if ( $node-&gt;streetAddress == "Tower 1" ) return true;
interfaces = GetNodeInterfaces($node);
foreach(i : interfaces)
{
	if ( i-&gt;peerNode != null ) peerNode = i-&gt;peerNode;
	else continue;
	if ( peerNode-&gt;streetAddress == "Tower 1" ) return true;
}
return false;
</code></pre>
<p dir="auto">What the above does is allow any node onto the map that has a street address of "Tower 1" (and is connected to your seed node), as well as any node that has an interface connected to a node with a street address of "Tower 1" (as long as that node is linked to your seed node somehow and within the discovery radius).</p>
<p dir="auto">Probably not the prettiest or most efficient way of doing it, but a quick test worked on my system.</p>

<p dir="auto">you can set either standard postal address attributes or some custom attribute on each switch to indicate which tower it belongs to, and then create 3 maps and use filtering script to filter only switches related to certain tower.</p>
<p dir="auto">Best regards,<br />

<p dir="auto">Can you help me with Network Maps</p>
<p dir="auto">In a project i have only 1 Subnet  but the switches are distributed in 3 Towers, hence in the network maps i wanted to visualize the switches in 3 different towers.</p>
<p dir="auto">How can i create a Network Map for 3 different towers showing only the switches present in each tower  though all the switches are in the same Subnet?</p>

<p dir="auto">IP topology map shows IP topology ignoring physical connectivity between nodes - and I suppose that all nodes and switches in your network are in the same IP subnet. What you need is layer 2 topology map, which shows physical connections between devices.</p>
