I don't understand the difference between a linked background and a plain old GIF image in Network Atlas.
Can some one please explain with an example? Thank you.
A linked background can be used to add weather maps to your map. They get updated automatically when someone goes to the page or when the screen refreshes. It is not a static picture. We have it mapped to:
image.weather.com/.../us_radar_plus_usen.jpg
This gives our helpdesk a chance to see if weather might be affecting the network.
