Azure Monitor Network Insights provides a comprehensive and visual representation through [topology](network-insights-topology.md), [health](../service-health/resource-health-checks-resource-types.md) and [metrics](../azure-monitor/essentials/metrics-supported.md) for all deployed network resources, without requiring any configuration. It also provides access to network monitoring capabilities like [Connection monitor](../network-watcher/connection-monitor-overview.md), [NSG flow logs](../network-watcher/network-watcher-nsg-flow-logging-overview.md), and [Traffic analytics](../network-watcher/traffic-analytics.md). Additionally, it provides other network [diagnostic](../network-watcher/network-watcher-monitoring-overview.md#network-diagnostics-tools) features.

[Topology](network-insights-topology.md) helps you visualize how a resource is configured. It provides a graphic representation of the entire hybrid network for understanding network configuration. Topology is a unified visualization tool for resource inventory and troubleshooting.

Topology provides a visualization of Azure virtual networks and connected resources for understanding networktopology. Topology provides an interactive interface to view resources and their relationships in Azure across multiple subscriptions, regions, and resource groups. You can drill down to the resource view of an individual resource such as a virtual machine (VM) to see its traffic and connectivity insights and access network diagnostic tools to troubleshoot any network issues the VM is experiencing. To learn how to use Azure Monitor topology, see [View topology](network-insights-topology.md?toc=/azure/azure-monitor/toc.json&bc=/azure/azure-monitor/breadcrumb/toc.json).

The **Traffic** tab lists all network security groups in the selected subscriptions, resource groups and locations and it shows the ones configured for [NSG flow logs](network-watcher-nsg-flow-logging-overview.md) and [Traffic analytics](../network-watcher/traffic-analytics.md). The search functionality provided on this tab enables you to identify the network security groups configured for the searched IP address. You can search for any IP address in your environment. The tiled regional view displays all network security groups along with the NSG flow logs and Traffic analytics configuration status.
