NetBrain currently displays a Virtual Switching System (VSS) or similarly stacked chassis configuration as a single device icon on the topology map, even though the underlying deployment consists of two or more physically stacked switches. This limits the accuracy of site topology visualization for customers who rely on the map to reflect actual physical device counts and connections. This enhancement would introduce a way to represent stacked chassis configurations more accurately on the map, either by rendering each member chassis as a separate connected device or by using a distinct icon that clearly indicates a device stack. Customers would benefit from improved topology accuracy, which supports better network documentation and troubleshooting for environments that rely on virtual switching stacks.
