2949.0. "Looking for topology display code" by MARVIN::SHAND (Mike Shand) Fri Nov 03 1995 07:31

I want to build a tool to take the routing topology information from (say) the
dump of a router and display it in the form of a topology diagram. Getting the
topology information is trivial, but I need some fancy code to display it. It
needs to be able to figure out a reasonable looking diagram layout for itself,
and then permit rearangement to correspond more with the actual physical layout.
I've seen this sort of thing done with hubwatch and netview etc. What I need is
some display code (or indeed a free standing program) into which I can easily
feed my topology information.

Any pointers, offers etc. gratefully received. You can mail me offline on

	SHAND::shand or Shand@shand.reo.dec.com

	Thanks,

		Mike
