Figure 3.1.7.

This page allows you to have a fast idea of the logical topology. All the topology elements are printed in a .png image: Each element has its own colour: blue clients, yellow access points, green core routers and red traffic generators for the nodes. The links are in grey if there are no conditions, but they are in black and named if they have loss, packet duplicity, throughput limitation or a latency specified. In this case, the link names are their properties. In the cross generators case, the red arrow points to the node which has the interface to be affected to, and the orange arrow points to the node connected to this interface. With these two arrows we can know which interface is affected by the cross traffic generator. If IPs are already specified, a list of nodes and its IPs is shown on the right. Two links (or three if we must deploy) are specified

1. Begin the deployment. If you must deploy, the link allows you to begin.
2. View the exact topology (file). Gives access to the topology file on the server. The topology is an XML file and may be your browser that directly reads the xml code, giving you only some data, not the raw .rdf file. Read the source code from the page to get the complete topology file.
