It would be nice to be able to render a geo-correct image of the nodes in Neo4j,
for example I would index them by a site reference/name and lookup the coordinates from an API returning something like this (depending on which location format is preferred)

-- Location
  RT90 X (WGS84 lat)  : 6590975 (59.4222418677237) 
  RT90 Y (WGS84 long) : 1619849 (17.9165012220488)

this way it would be easier from a physical topology to understand what and where neighboring nodes are located and I invision this helping out in troubleshooting scenarios.

you could ofc go a step further and use it as metadata to filter for node-x and display within Y,X to filter adjacent nodes (but that´s just something ridiculous I just thought up, dont know a usecase for that ) 😄

Followed the instructions per the inst-doc, seems when populating data I have problems with auth to neo4j

./test/first_import.sh 
2017-01-20 10:56:47,028 nglib:INFO: Enabled STDOUT Logging
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./ngupdate.py", line 140, in 
    nglib.init_nglib(config_file)

    bolt_ses = get_db_client(dbhost, dbuser, dbpass, bolt=True)
  File "/home/peterjoh/netgrph/nglib/__init__.py", line 86, in get_db_client
    auth_token = basic_auth(dbuser, dbpass)
NameError: name 'basic_auth' is not defined

the think i reacted upon was that neo4j has changed some parameters in neo4j.conf

dbms.connectors.default_listen_address=0.0.0.0
dbms.connector.http.listen_address=0.0.0.0:7474

instead of the suggested dbms.connector.http.address=0.0.0.0:7474

I can login to neo4j and the credentials work there, havent gotten around to check the code where basic_auth is defined

Hello,

I've start reading the doc about Netgrph and it's unclear if netgraph is actually discoverying the network topology. Here our usecase.

We are managing multiple disconnected customer network. We have relatively no knowledge about the network topology of these customer network. Most equipment network equipment are Cisco router and switch. We do have SNMP read access to the devices.

We want to discover the topology of these network: what is connected to what. We would like to include router, switch, but also other component part of the network like servers, printers, etc.

Is Netgrph matches our usecase ? If not do you know another tool capable of doing such discovery ?

Hi there,
I just tried to install netgrph using a Docker-Compose setup. Unfortunately the first_import.sh script does not seem to work properly. There seems to be a KeyError (see gateway_physical_error.txt). Do you have an idea how to fix this? Thanks!
Regards,
Philip
