Customizable topology view

ZyXTechOslo

Hi all.

I have attached two screenshots from the topology-view for two different sites in Nebula.
One looks quite "ordinary" but the other looks just "stupid" with what could only be thought of as extremely long cables. And it ruins the possibility of showing the entire topology in a logic and understandable view. So it would be very nice if Nebula first and foremost scaled the view so all units are shown without the need to scroll all over the place, but even better would be if the Nebula admin could move the units around to represent different floors and left/right in a certain setup etc.
That way it would be a much better tool to use together with our customers so that they would understand their current setup. (And possible enhanchements etc.)

Hi @ZyXTechOslo,

Thanks for your input.

The topology enhancement is already on our roadmap. Stay tuned.

Hi @ZyXTechOslo,

I want to clarify this part "But even better would be if the Nebula admin could move the units around to represent different floors and left/right in a certain setup etc.", does it mean the whole topology can be dragged or moved the specific device/part and separate it from the original topology?

Hi, and thanks for your feedback.
My idea was to drag each unit around in the same topology-view, where the "string" between e.g. the switch and the AP just follows around, so that one can visualize the placement relative to eachother. Did that clearify better? :-)

Hi @ZyXTechOslo,

Thanks for the detailed description.

Scaling the topology has been listed in our plan and is coming soon.

We will list the second part "if the Nebula admin could move the units around to represent different floors and left/right in a certain setup etc." to our feature request list and evaluate this feature.

If anyone likes this idea, please vote for it and leave a comment.
