Like the network component, the equipment component is based on ILOG JViews. It allows you to display items of equipment such as cards, shelves, ports, and LEDs. It also supports pop-up menus and tooltips.

Like the network component, the equipment component can be configured either through a CSS file, where you define all its associated settings (map displayed in the background, toolbar, and so on), or through an API.

JViews TGO includes an equipment editor, a graphic user interface, that allows you to build an equipment component in a very easy and user-friendly manner.
