A simple tool for visualising OSPF network topology as seen by BIRD

Birdvisu is a library and a graphical app to visualize routing topologies of OSPF. It does not implement OSPF on its own, but rather exports current state from BIRD that's where the name comes from.

The main use case is comparing a reference topology (e.g. a known good one) to the current state. This allows Birdvisu to show failed links and other anomailes in the network.

Also, this is the project for my Bachelor thesis.

Installation

Run pip install -e .. You can use a virtualenv if you wish (recommended).

A demo is located in ./poor_mans_visualisation.py, if that runs, everything should be working.

Documentation

Documentation is built using Sphinx by running make in the docs/ directory.

Licence

I have not decided yet, so please ask for terms if you want to use this in some non-trivial way. Obviously this is source available :-)
