+\
+Yes. If you don\`t use my plugins you can still use this tool to create your topology data, for this you need the path to your topology data in the inventory. For example for my CDP plugin this is _Networking_ -> _CDP Cache_ internally known as `networking` -> `cdp_cache`". The data must form a table in the inventory that contains at least the three columns for the neighbor name, neighbor port, and local port. For these columns you need the internal names. I.e. for my CDP plugin the columns _Neighbor device_, _Neighbor port_ and _Local port_ are known internally as `device_id`, `local_port` and `device_port`. With this information, you can run the tool like this
+
+```
+~/local/bin/network-topology/create_topology_data.py -s Core01 -p "networking,cdp_cache" -c "device_id,local_port,device_port"
+```
+
+Wehre -p is the path to your inventory data and -c are the columns used in the order _neighbor_, _local port_, _neighbor port_.
