You can view sites in the global topology view by clicking the drop pin icon on the Monitor Overview dashboard.
You must configure the latitude and longitude on the routers to view the sites in the corresponding geographical location
on the map.
You can view all the WAN edge devices and sites for geographical regions worldwide. When you click an individual site, you
can view the site details such as Hostname, Site ID, Device Model, System IP, Health, Reachability, and so on, in the side pane. When you click on the troubleshooting options available in the side pane, Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN Manager displays the relevant troubleshooting pages. Aggregated sites show the number of sites. The color of the aggregated site
shows the site health.
To view the site topology of a specific site, click Site Topology. To view a specific site dashboard, click Site Dashboard. When you click View Tunnels available in the side pane, you can see the tunnels associated to a specific site. Click the tunnel line to view detailed
tunnel information. Click the back button to go back from the tunnel view to the Global Network view.

Global Region View
Minimum supported release: Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN Manager Release 20.13.1
If Multi-Region Fabric is enabled, click Region to display a topology diagram showing the access regions and the core region. The diagram indicates the number of border
sites and edge sites in each access region. For access regions that have a border router providing connectivity to the core
region, the diagram shows a link between the access region and the core region.
Click a region in the diagram to show which other regions it has connectivity to through the core region—links to those regions
are highlighted.
Click a link between an access region and the core region to display BFD session information related to connections between
the two regions, similar to the information provided by the show sdwan bfd sessions command.
