Description

NeXt provides a network centric topology UI component featuring high performance and rich functionality. NeXt can display large complex network topologies, aggregated network nodes, traffic/path/tunnel/group visualizations and it includes different layout algorithms, map overlays, and preset user friendly interactions. NeXt can work together with DLUX to build ODL apps. We already use NeXt to develop an App container and 5 Apps (ACL viewer, OpenFlow topology viewer, BGP viewer, Policy Group Networking visualizer, Route Convergence Visualizer). Check out our demo video (https://youtu.be/2TB2yIwgjwo?t=4s and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gBsUDu8au) and you can get more information form here https://developer.cisco.com/site/neXt/
