Using the Oracle OCI Network Visualizer
Matt Mulvaney
The Oracle OCI Network Visualizer provides an interactive, graphical view of network resources within your Oracle Cloud Infrastructure environment, helping you visualize and understand connections, dependencies, and configurations across Virtual Cloud Networks (VCNs), subnets, gateways, and security settings.
I thought I’d quickly blog this as it was described to me by someone as the best thing on the WHOLE of OCI - you know who you are 😉- so I gave it a go and I agree, its not bad.
In OCI, click on Hamburger > Networking > Network Visualizer
It will instantly draw your Regional Map i.e Germany Central in my case
Clicking on a VCN gives you a Resource Summary
This then gives you 2 resource maps
The Routing Map looks like this
The Security Map looks like this
Useful?… Yes.
The best thing on the WHOLE of OCI?… Maybe ;-)
ENJOY!
