Not bad, but I miss one important feature in all those visualizations: Most 
tools link hops directly to the next hop. This is not sufficient for detailed 
analysis of complex router and firewall environments: It is crucial to 
understand that IP-adresses/interfaces are connected to _networks_, not to 
other IPs/interfaces.

Secondly, it is also important to have support for more than a single IP per 
system, which is the case at least at each and every router.

I understand that the underlying problems with that are quite hard wrt 
complexity, but, to be honest, I do care about that much more than rendering 
fancy details about a single node since I can look up that information very 
easy in the -oN or whatever output anyway.
