 Posted: Fri Jul 13, 2007 1:01 pm Post subject: [SOLVED] Custom link arrow directions |
 |
|
I am looking for a way to create a one-way link arrow with BW% displayed.
i am using two maps for our MPLS WAN - 1 for the US and 1 for Europe. On each map i have a MPLS WAN Cloud icon and I am trying to approximate the trans-atlantic traffic in one direction i.e.
On the US Map - %BW out to Europe -----%bw--->
On the Europe map - %BW out to the States <----%bw---
I am using the TARGET directive to approximate my traffic_out's from the RRDs but I only want the traffic represented in one direction.
Howie - This is a fantastic contribution to network engineers everywhere! Cheers! |

There is actually half of the code in place for uni-directional links. I stopped working on it because no-one seemed that interested in it, and I couldn't remember what I wanted it for myself  I think it was something like round-trip times... Hehe. It's like an electronic appendix 
Right now, you could do it in a cheezy way by having an off-screen node position so that the midpoint of the link hits the edge of your map. (told you it was cheezy).
Unidirectional links may make an appearance in 0.93 or 0.94 then. |
