Showing Routing Neighbors on a map

I have 3 hub sites and 23 edge sites in my company.

We are using DMVPN to connect everything.

Each hub can see the 23 edge sites and has a DMVPN tunnel to each.

I am trying to create a network map that will display the up/down status of the edge sites from the hub site.

When I look at each hub router, in Orion under the Network Tab, I can see its Routing Neighbors.
I would like to create objects on the map that shows the up/down status of each routing neighbor from each hub router.

When I add objects to the map, I dont see a way to drill down in to a router and have it show me its routing neighbors.

Has anyone done this before and can you give me a recommendation on how to do it?

not sure what equipment you are using but why don't you think more simple if it's dmvpn/mpls whatever.... Just run cdp or something and you should be able to see everything like it's connected anyway. Not sure if the routing part is really that important imo

I have thought about this, but have not implemented a solution yet. One thought was connect the VPN tunnel interfaces instead of just having the routing neighbors. It should accomplish the same thing, at least in my network.

I have been trying to figure out the simplest way of doing this.

Currently I have a hub site (Hub1) that is no longer eigrp neighbors with an Edge site (Edge1).

When I look at the tunnel interface on Hub1 and Edge1, it shows up on both sides. However I believe it is the GRE tunnel that is down between them.

Hub2 and Hub3 are both still neighbors with Edge1, so I can still connect to the edge, but I cant get to it through Hub1.

So from Orion, looking at Hub1, it shows it lost Edge1 as a routing neighbor.

Why don't you use a tunnel interface and then monitor it?

What I see is that the tunnel interface stays up even when the EIGRP neighbor drops off.
