<a name="view-resource-map"></a>

The Network Load Balancer resource map provides an interactive display of your Network Load Balancers architecture, including its associated listeners, target groups, and targets. The resource map also highlights the relationships and routing paths between all resources, producing a visual representation of your Network Load Balancers configuration.

**Map views**  
There are two views available in the Network Load Balancer resource map: **Overview**, and **Unhealthy Target Map**. **Overview** is selected by default and displays all of your Network Load Balancer's resources. Selecting the **Unhealthy Target Map** view will only display the unhealthy targets and the resources associated to them.

The **Unhealthy Target Map** view can be used to troubleshoot targets that are failing health checks. For more information, see [Troubleshoot unhealthy targets using the resource map](load-balancer-troubleshooting.md#troubleshoot-with-resourcemap).

**Resource columns**  
The Network Load Balancer resource map contains three resource columns, one for each resource type. The resource groups are **Listeners**, **Target groups**, and **Targets**.

**Resource tiles**  
Each resource within a column has its own tile, which displays details about that specific resource.
+ Hovering over a resource tile highlights the relationships between it and other resources.
+ Selecting a resource tile highlights the relationships between it and other resources, and displays additional details about that resource.
  + **target group health summary:** The number of registered targets for each health status.
  + **target health status:** The target's current health status and description.
**Note**  
You can turn off **Show resource details** to hide additional details within the resource map.
+ Each resource tile contains a link that, when selected, navigates to that resource's details page.
  + **Listeners** ‐ Select the listeners protocol:port. For example, `TCP:80`
  + **Target groups** ‐ Select the target group name. For example, `my-target-group`
  + **Targets** ‐ Select the targets ID. For example, `i-1234567890abcdef0`

**Export the resource map**  
Selecting **Export** gives you the option of exporting the current view of your Network Load Balancer's resource map as a PDF.
