Hi all,

It would be nice to be able to export the network topology as a flow chart or in a format which could be manipulated to easily produce a manual or poster to include in customer documentation.

    Hi @LukeArchbold,

    Thank you for your input!

    Just to clarify: Since Nebula's Topology page can already be exported as a PDF, which is handy for sharing snapshots or including in documentation, are you requesting an editable format so users can customize the diagram as needed?

    Additionally, could you please share more details about your specific use case or application scenario? This information will help us better understand your needs and evaluate the request more effectively.

    Hi Tina,

    Yes please, it would be nice to be able to export the Topology in an editable format for example the ability to drag and drop devices so that they could be grouped and exported as a single page a4.

    In this case we have a user who would like a network manual with lists of devices MAC addresses, IP addresses etc they have also requested a network topology diagram.

    We would like to produce this Topology diagram on A3 sheets which can be printed and placed on the server room wall.

    Not sure if I'm being very clear but if you have any questions please follow up :)

    Hi @LukeArchbold,

    Thank you for the feedback.

    To help us evaluate this request more effectively, could you clarify what specific editable format you have in mind for the topology export? Any existing tools or standards you're using would be helpful too.

    Hi Tina,

    If possible something like .drawio XML file would be perfect as it would allow moving icons and adding custom labels etc.

    Kind regards,

    Luke Archbold.
