<br>Personally for showing active links etc (similar to the Network Weathermap) I use 'The Dude' ( <a href="http://www.mikrotik.com/thedude.php" target="_blank">http://www.mikrotik.com/thedude.php</a>
) which is a free software, comes with its share of limitations but is
pretty feature rich and has a relatively simple learning curve. Software
runsunder Windows or Wine but has a web interface for viewing too.
(See <a href="http://imgur.com/gdrRm" target="_blank">http://imgur.com/gdrRm</a> for a simple example map)<br>
<br>That said I'd love to find something decent for providing that sort of visibility that's open source and relatively new.<br><br><span style="font-family:arial, sans-serif;font-size:13px;border-collapse:collapse;color:rgb(136, 136, 136)"><div>
