If your browser recognized the APPLET tag, you could see an applet here.

Tips

First, the BauHaus Console window will appear and then display some initialization messages. A BauHaus Survey window will appear each time (presently, five times) the system has a configuration question for the user. (Running as an applet, a warning message will appear in each window. This is a reminder that the security features are enabled.) While the size of the network can be arbitrarily large, it is limited by the user's patience. Note that the "data" network has a troubleshooting ("spy") network superimposed on it:

  1. begin with the defaults to view a simple example of output (in the BauHaus Console);
  2. then choose one Building and add a few more Subnets (3 or 4) to the Floors and see how this affects the connections in the Wiring Closets and the Basement;
  3. then add a few more Floors to the Building and see how the Basement changes;
  4. then add a few more Buildings, keeping defaults for the remainder, to see how the NOC (Network Operating Center) changes;
  5. experiment.

(To rerun the simulation in a browser, guide the browser back to the main page and click on the appropriate hyperlink again.)
