[Individual links](https://support.hyperglance.com/knowledge/links-guide#single) 2. [Aggregated links](https://support.hyperglance.com/knowledge/links-guide#aggregated) 3. How to change your link view ### Individual Links The simplest kind of link in Hyperglance is a thin **solid** **line** between resources. ![](https://support.hyperglance.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/s3.amazonaws.comcdn.freshdesk.comdatahelpdeskattachmentsproduction11043313977original6brVbHQHR7jRthcld-vaaoMS1toaw_PygA.png?width=400&name=s3.amazonaws.comcdn.freshdesk.comdatahelpdeskattachmentsproduction11043313977original6brVbHQHR7jRthcld-vaaoMS1toaw_PygA.png)   Click on one of these links and you'll be shown the [resource detail view](https://support.hyperglance.com/knowledge/pop-up-entity-dashboard?hsLang=en), displaying any attributes related to that link. ![](https://support.hyperglance.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/s3.amazonaws.comcdn.freshdesk.comdatahelpdeskattachmentsproduction11043313995originalv9uQH4kuChhbYzDYXailY-7HEtIdYpgnLw.png?width=300&name=s3.amazonaws.comcdn.freshdesk.comdatahelpdeskattachmentsproduction11043313995originalv9uQH4kuChhbYzDYXailY-7HEtIdYpgnLw.png)   A **dotted line** is created between a network interface and its associated owner, e.g. an EC2 instance. This happens the interface is in a different subnet from its owner resource, as in the screenshot below. These dotted links aren't clickable. ![](https://support.hyperglance.com/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/s3.amazonaws.comcdn.freshdesk.comdatahelpdeskattachmentsproduction11054405030original_meKD-QBr7TN81dlVjNL7_JgL6VhpVZnwA.png) ### Grouped Links Grouped (aggregated) links are represented as** dashed lines**. These represent multiple links or the possibility of multiple links. For example, if there are resources within a group connected to resources outside of that group, then Hyperglance will draw an aggregated link out from the group. ![](https://support.hyperglance.com/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/s3.amazonaws.comcdn.freshdesk.comdatahelpdeskattachmentsproduction11043314044originalzrHcsmMiDMzK2qjkpTgPRlU8BCDkZJNOng.png)   Clicking on a grouped link will pop up an interactive list of all the links that are represented by the grouped link, as well as the associated entities. ![](https://support.hyperglance.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/s3.amazonaws.comcdn.freshdesk.comdatahelpdeskattachmentsproduction11043314104originalVwXIJ_5QXQbk69xa0kyl6WQnlZJPxa0c2g.png?width=600&name=s3.amazonaws.comcdn.freshdesk.comdatahelpdeskattachmentsproduction11043314104originalVwXIJ_5QXQbk69xa0kyl6WQnlZJPxa0c2g.png) You can click on any of the individual links, resources, or groups in the diagram to bring up more information about them. When the ends of the links are horizontally side-by-side, then Hyperglance will draw links above the connected entities, instead of perfectly straight lines. ![](https://support.hyperglance.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/s3.amazonaws.comcdn.freshdesk.comdatahelpdeskattachmentsproduction11043314127originalb0_fo2gXx-fMdrV1OAXi6bUbow1MShwQog.png?width=500&name=s3.amazonaws.comcdn.freshdesk.comdatahelpdeskattachmentsproduction11043314127originalb0_fo2gXx-fMdrV1OAXi6bUbow1MShwQog.png) ### How To Change Your Link View Use the 'Links' toggle under the 'Show/Hide' option in the top right corner in the 'Diagram' tab: ![link-mode](https://support.hyperglance.com/hs-fs/hubfs/link-mode.png?width=350&name=link-mode.png) Here, you'll be able to toggle between individual (default) and grouped links, depending on your preference.![](https://support.hyperglance.com/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/support.hyperglance.comsupportsolutionsarticles11000016958-links-and-link-typeshit.gif) - [Before You Start](https://support.hyperglance.com/knowledge/before-you-start?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Kubernetes](https://support.hyperglance.com/knowledge/before-you-start?hsLang=en#kubernetes) - [GCP](https://support.hyperglance.com/knowledge/before-you-start?hsLang=en#gcp) - [AWS](https://support.hyperglance.com/knowledge/before-you-start?hsLang=en#aws) - [Azure](https://support.hyperglance.com/knowledge/before-you-start?hsLang=en#azure) - [Using Hyperglance](https://support.hyperglance.com/knowledge/using-hyperglance?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Automations](https://support.hyperglance.com/knowledge/using-hyperglance?hsLang=en#automations) - [Inventory & Diagrams](https://support.hyperglance.com/knowledge/using-hyperglance?hsLang=en#inventory-diagrams) - [Rules](https://support.hyperglance.com/knowledge/using-hyperglance?hsLang=en#rules) - [Cost Management](https://support.hyperglance.com/knowledge/using-hyperglance?hsLang=en#cost-management) - [Dashboards](https://support.hyperglance.com/knowledge/using-hyperglance?hsLang=en#dashboards) - [Security & Compliance](https://support.hyperglance.com/knowledge/using-hyperglance?hsLang=en#security-compliance) - [Setup & Configuration](https://support.hyperglance.com/knowledge/setup-configuration?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Updating & Migrating](https://support.hyperglance.com/knowledge/setup-configuration?hsLang=en#updating-migrating) - [General](https://support.hyperglance.com/knowledge/setup-configuration?hsLang=en#general) - [RBAC & Users](https://support.hyperglance.com/knowledge/setup-configuration?hsLang=en#rbac-users) - [STIGS & FIPS](https://support.hyperglance.com/knowledge/setup-configuration?hsLang=en#stigs-fips) - [AWS](https://support.hyperglance.com/knowledge/setup-configuration?hsLang=en#aws) - [Azure](https://support.hyperglance.com/knowledge/setup-configuration?hsLang=en#azure) - [Kubernetes](https://support.hyperglance.com/knowledge/setup-configuration?hsLang=en#kubernetes) - [GCP](https://support.hyperglance.com/knowledge/setup-configuration?hsLang=en#gcp) - [API](https://support.hyperglance.com/knowledge/setup-configuration?hsLang=en#api) - [Legacy Docker-based deployments](https://support.hyperglance.com/knowledge/setup-configuration?hsLang=en#legacy-docker-based-deployments) - [AI](https://support.hyperglance.com/knowledge/setup-configuration?hsLang=en#ai) [![Chill listening crop-3](https://support.hyperglance.com/hs-fs/hubfs/hyperglance.png?width=134&height=24&name=hyperglance.png "Chill listening crop-3")](https://www.hyperglance.com/) 2880 Zanker Road, Suite 203, San Jose, CA 95134 Copyright © 2025 Hyperglance.
