Abstract
Some embodiments provide a method for presenting a visualization of a topology for a logical network. In response to receiving a selection of a particular user interface (UI) item representing a particular group of logical elements, the method presents one or more filter UI items for the particular group of logical elements. Each filter UI item corresponds to a different attribute associated with the logical elements. Upon receiving selection of one or more attribute states for each attribute for which a filter UI item is presented, the method identifies logical elements in the group of logical elements that match the selected attribute states. The method presents, in the UI, an expanded version of the particular group of logical elements that emphasizes the identified logical elements that match the selected attribute states.
