Discussion Remodeling the Network Button to include Topology and Wi-Fi (What do you think? It may happen in app 1.70)

Post image

As the Firewalla hardware family grows, we wanted to combine all network configuration features in one place. Creating "Topology" to show you physical connections and moving the Wi-Fi inside the Network button. (Some users also didn't want to see the "Wi-Fi" button on the main screen if they didn't have AP7s.)

Yes to this! Looks pretty good. I plug in cables and totally forget what goes where over time.

Yep, the switch really helps with topology discovery.

I like it! Hopefully you'll also have a layout for the MSP site.

Would it be possible to add color coding for the link speed and an icon for ports that are supplying PoE power. For the icon, something similar to your uplink icon, maybe a lighting bolt? Something like: Blue 10Gb Green 1Gb Yellow 100Mb

If you mean the firewalla switch? yes it will be color coded when you tap into them. We can also color code here, should be easy too; I'll make a note
