ABSTRACT:
Method and apparatus for automatically populating a network simulation tool database with network topology and/or traffic information. A topology extraction tool is provided for reading the topology and traffic information in a network management system database, and translating this information into a matching data format required by the simulation tool database before writing the information to the simulation tool database. This automatic method avoids the time-consuming and error-prone prior art manual method of constructing a network model.
