Kytos Main Topology Network Application (NApp)

kytos/topology

NApp that manages the network topology

OpenAPI Docs

Overview

This NApp is responsible for tracking the network topology and supplying network topology information to any NApp that requires it.

This NApp intends to be protocol agnostic. Therefore, if you want to provide network topology data from any network protocol, check the listened events section and generate them from your NApp.

Installing

To install this NApp, first, make sure to have the same venv activated as you have kytos installed on:

$ git clone https://github.com/kytos-ng/topology.git
$ cd topology
$ python3 -m pip install --editable .

To install the kytos environment, please follow our development environment setup.
