Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation From BIG-IP A41dministration Support and Troubleshooting documents:To confirm functionality across a complex environment, the "Network Map" is the most efficient troubleshooting tool in the Configuration Utility43. It provides a hierarchical, visual representation of the traffic management objects44. A single glance allows the administrator to see the status of a Virtual Server (Green/Red/Yellow), the status of its associated pool, the health of individual pool members, and which iRules are currently attached45. This view is superior to the standard "Virtual Server List" for troubleshooting because it maps the dependencies between objects46. For example, if a Virtual Server is "Red," the Network Map will show if that status is inherited from a failed pool or a specific monitor failing on a pool member. Reviewing these basic stats in the Network Map helps the administrator quickly isolate whether a failure is at the service level (Virtual Server), the logic level (iRule), or the hardware level (Pool Member).
