Traffic management with Weathermap

Post by minya »

Hi all!
I have an idea to modify weathermap plugin to make it traffic management system.
For example, when mouse pointer is over the link between two routers - I get not only load of this link, but menu, where I can include any script, which will send commands to the devices, like changing link status, or changing routes etc.

So my question is - Is that really possible or there is some other system which will have traffic(network) map and API to configure all devices what I have. (Friendly Pinger or some proprietary soft not offer)
Thanks in advance and sorry for my english.

Check out the NOTES keyword. You can add any HTML into the popup box for a link or node.

Of course you still need to write some PHP/CGI/whatever to actually do the things you want (like disabling interfaces etc) :-)
Weathermap 0.98a is out! & QuickTree 1.0. Superlinks is over there now (and built-in to Cacti 1.x).
Some Other Cacti tweaks, including strip-graphs, icons and snmp/netflow stuff.
(Let me know if you have UK DevOps or Network Ops opportunities, too!)
