It is indeed rather cool. We have it running here and the networks guys love it. To make it work correctly with MRTG/RRD and routers2, you need to use settings like this: INFOURL /cgi-bin/routers2.cgi?xgtype=d&rtr=device.cfg&if=targetname OVERLIBGRAPH /cgi-bin/routers2.cgi?page=image&xgtype=ds&xgstyle=x&rtr=device.cfg&if=t argetname TARGET /usr/local/rrd/targetname.rrd:ds0:ds1 Since we also run Nagios here, we have a (homegrown and submitted to the project) plugin for getting Nagios status into the weathermap. We've experimented with using it to graph not just network throughput, but to provide dashboards for staus of our VMWare farm, and to show email throughput over our infrastructure. I also have a homegrown client-server editor for the weathermap configuration files that's rather nifty. Runs using activeperl on yourdesktop and uses https and a helper CGI to update the configs on the server. Obtain support and download from here: http://www.steveshipway.org/forum/viewforum.php?f=29 We've also created a little script that archives the weathermap graphics every 10 mins, and at the end of the day merges them into an .avi video file so that people can play back the usage pattern for a particular day as a video. This is very rough and not really suited for publication - it uses the 'mencoder' utility to change a list of PNGs into an AVI.
