OSPF Visualizer?

All: I am a small Wireless ISP in need of an OSPF visualizer that does not cost an arm and a leg. I would like one that can listen to LSA's in each area and build a map of the network. I anticipate that I could trouble OSPF issues with such a system. Any open source projects? Th

There are a lot of variables that would skew numbers in favor of using FOSS on commodity hardware in our situation, that wouldn't necessarily apply to others. Primarily because these are used to provide services that are in part funded through the federal E-rate program, and need to comply with re

The test plan you use depends upon what you want to test - raw pps throughput, route convergence time, qos performance, etc. We use Exfo (http://www.exfo.com) testers working to a mac-swap loopback for commissioning testing of Ethernet access circuits, looking at the usual loss/throughput/latenc
