Vertices
Vertices is a standard configuration interface for adding, editing, and removing Vertices as well as special properties. Vertices can be a Device, SLM Service, SLM Metric, etc. and are used to represent these items in the graph database. Properties of the vertices are custom name/value pairs used for meta tagging. Certain Unified Assurance components leverage this meta data for display and/or correlation purposes.
Note:
Great care should be taken when modifying anything in the database as mis-configurations can cause unintended results.
Refer to the Standard Configuration Interface guide for details on interacting with the grid and form.
This user interface calls REST methods from api/graph/vertices.
The UI path for this interface is Configuration -> Graph -> Vertices.
