Abstract :
A serious problem in network management is the manner in which data is presented, as it is difficult to visualize a network by examining tabular data output. It is shown by examples that by presenting computer network data in graphical form instead of numerical, the network manager will be able to discover problems in the network much faster and more easily than with traditional methods
