I make light use of templates to set some defaults, nothing as cool as Michael's. May have to up my hover text game now :)
I just build maps as needed, mainly ones to cover general topology and infrastructure, sometimes I add clients to them for quick overviews. It’s a hard problem to do auto layout for that kind of thing in a meaningful fashion. Something a little more interactive and flexible than the available weathermap editor would be nice though (html5 interactive instead of new cgi call interactive).

The port maps we generate are made with graphviz, but it doesn’t make very useful diagrams when you have more than a handful of devices.
The graphviz stuff was actually one of the first features I created a very long time ago, but they’ve always been almost useless. That’s why we don’t expose the full map and only use the “port map” thing.

I am planning to use Weathermap for my 4-500 sits.
Mainly to show topologi and link status. But I have other more pressing issues, that I need to focus on.
What is the status on current topology engine used? That uses the LLDP.

Hi Guys,
For those of you using PHP Weathermap, how many of you are using template/include features?
How complex after the weathermaps you’re making?
Thanks,
Adam.
