Orient Module

The Orient module generates a visual representation of the network topology. It takes three parameters: devices, links, and hosts, each represented as Pandas DataFrames. Using NetworkX, a graph is constructed, where devices and hosts are added as nodes, and edges between them represent links. The visualization helps network administrators and engineers understand the structure and connections in the network.

Visual representation of the network topology, illustrating device and host connections with node labels and inter-device links.

Further, it monitors the traffic conditions by calculating important metrics such as link utilization, throughput, error rates, packet drops, and latency. This helps to keep track of network performance, identify bottlenecks, and optimize the flow of data. The computed metrics are stored in a DataFrame, which can be further analyzed or saved for future reference.
