Where to find itCanvas→Import→As-built (pull live)
As-built importpulls a live device (and its LLDP/CDP neighbors) using a saved credential profile and drops the discovered topology onto the canvas as a preview. It reconciles against your current design so you can see what's matched, what's new on the wire, and what's missing in live before adding anything.
Why
The fastest way to start a design is from what's already there. Pulling the real topology beats redrawing it — and the reconciliation makes the gap between design and reality explicit.
- Choose a seed device + SSH credential profile.
- Optionally scaffold LLDP/CDP neighbors as discovered nodes.
- Review the matched / new / missing summary, then apply — the import is additive and undoable.
