Hi,
You can do that for sure.
Look in Topology designer first.
Or you can create own graphic elements, using HWstatus of the CN ports (tab Connection for the corresponding port). Look for ErrorsAndWarnings in online help for such.

RNRP status is unfortunately not available as OPC DA properties.
I have posted a workaround (using Alarm Condition aspects to extract system alarm status from the node objects in the Node Administration Structure). There is one caveat, you cannot sense individual path states, only "one path down but node is up via other path" (low prio alarm) and "node down on all paths" (high prio alarm).
I also want to vent the important fact that the system alarms for Network Connection problems are seen through the eyes of the primary aspect server, running the System Status service. Hence, the alarms reflect "reachability from the viewpoint of the aspect server" which is not the same as path information for any given node.
I wish there existed a generic OPC DA source for RNRP status but there is none; if you seek it, please ask your regional ABB sales representative to forward an enhancement request.
The other answer by fellow AKS expert kstoilov is indeed worth looking at; but recall, that status information comes from the controller itself, not RNRP. If the controller looses network connection, you might not get any alarm at all out of it.
