Some possible link-maps, based on assigning costs to each potential link, then building a graph iteratively by choosing at each iteration the lowest-cost link which does not introduce a loop into the graph. I should re-do these keeping some loop-forming links as backup routes.
Using round-trip time between nodes as link cost:
squirrel
|
husky
|
lion -- pholph -- snowleop -- cheetah -- tixen
|
otter
|
glider
Each pair of nodes has two traces connecting them, and in many cases the hopcounts are different. Using the lower hop-count between the two nodes as link cost:
lion squirrel
\ |
cheetah -- husky -- tixen
/ |
pholph snowleopard
|
glider
|
otter
Using the higher hop-count between the two nodes as link cost:
lion -- snowleop -- husky -- cheetah -- pholph
| | |
squirrel tixen glider
|
otter
