 Description   

Hello.
At creation of 2 and more links between two hosts, links are superimposed against each other. It would be desirable that there was a possibility of mapping of 2 and more links between two hosts on an arc or a different way (whenever possible: a quick view items which is anchored to a link).

Here is my patch for multiple links between two hosts, distance is hardcoded in function drawMapConnectors(&$im, &$map, &$map_info)

Example of map with patch

Will this patch work for Zabbix version 2 as well?

This request is very necessary. Currently on my map I have a Cisco router that connects to two HP switches and only lets me show the information of only one link, but if I want to add a second link to be shown on the map, it will not let me do it.

7 years and do you have any update?

It is possible to draw multiple links between two hosts on the map with a workaround. You need to upload a transparent image that will be used to route links via a different path. Recently I have migrated maps from Weathermap to Zabbix and wrote a tutorial on how to do that:

You can use that workaround until this feature is implemented.

Zabbix Team within next releases could focus on improvements for map features.
