network_topology_v6 · Zabbix 7.4 frontend module · AGPL-3.0

Your Zabbix hosts as an interactive topology map.

A frontend module that renders hosts, problems, traffic and root cause as a map — right inside Zabbix, no extra server. Force graph, wallboard, table and geo from the same data.

01Four views, one topology

Switch views without leaving the map — same data, whatever the situation. Everything renders in the Zabbix frontend.

Technical graph

Force graph with severity rings and metric segments. LLDP/CDP discovers the links.

Management wallboard

Tiles by device type — firewall, switch, server, storage. For the NOC screen.

Table pivot

Nagios-style host list or pivot: hosts × items, e.g. every disk in a group.

Geo leaflet

Locations on the map, GPS from the host inventory. For distributed infrastructure.


02What else is in it

+
WeathermapLink utilisation as edge colour (SNMP ifSpeed).
+
What-if-SimulationSimulate an outage, see root cause & blast radius.
+
Kapazitäts-ForecastTrend forecast per host and host group.
+
History-SliderTrigger status at any point in time (1h/24h/7d).
+
Health-ScoreAggregated status per host group.
+
Wartung aus der KarteMaintenance windows right on the node.
+
LLDP / CDP DiscoveryLinks discovered automatically from neighbour data.
+
Custom-Tagsnt:icon · nt:label · nt:note · nt:link on the host.
+
Wallboard-ModusFull screen + auto-refresh for the NOC screen.

03When it's on fire, you see where — instantly.

A disaster trigger turns the ring red and pulses. The what-if simulation shows root cause and blast radius — before the first tickets come in.
