A method and system are described for presenting an arrangement of management devices operable in a managed network. According to exemplary embodiments, a number of management devices arranged in the managed network are identified. Identities of the management devices are presented in a graphical user interface (GUI). Visual cues are added to the GUI to identify a communication status between a first of the management devices and each of the remaining management devices arranged in the managed network. A software link can be provided between each presented identity and the respective management device to provide automated access to management information maintained at the respective management device. A graphical representation and an operational status of a portion of the managed network can be presented based on the management information maintained at the respective management device in the GUI via the software link.
