Would it be possible to have a query generate a pie graph in addition to the relational mapping graph? I'm not sure how this would work for queries that include srcip and dstip, but it would be handy to see a pie chart of the top conversations for a particular host, especially in NagiosXI using the NNA integration. Another thing that would be handy with the XI integration would be the ability to run a query against a specific sourcegroup. Being able to see all the traffic a host sends over specific sources would be handy. Also, when you run a query against a bunch of sources there's a ton of dead space on the screen to the left of the list of sources. Is that something that could be fixed?

Let's break this down a bit:

So are you looking for a pie graph showing percentages of the total traffic, per conversation?

I could see this being useful as well, good old feature request time?

Are there any particular steps I should use to try and reproduce this, or just run any old query against a source or two?

Exactly. Not sure how it'd work or if it'd be possible, but that's exactly what I'd like to see.

Sounds good, should I put one in tracker or would it be best to just have an internal one done?

Yeah running any query should do it, but it would need to be a lot of sources. We have about 80 or so, so when we run a query against all sources there's a huge area of dead space and all the sources are listed on the right. It looks like the screen shot in this feature request I posted to tracker: http://tracker.nagios.com/view.php?id=553

I did two separate feature requests (one for pie charts and another for specific sourcegroup queries) but I did not file another bug report since you have one open in Tracker.
