Dependencies or Parent/Child Relationships
Allow devices to be dependent on one another. If a router goes down, the switch behind it will most likely go down or have an error as well.

As far as i'm aware, you can't manually edit ERIs. However, you can easily write a static PropertySource that statically tags those devices. You'd then also need to write the companion TopoSource to tie them together, unless you were planning on manually adding ERIs that are already referenced by an existing TopoSource, which isn't likely. They pretty much have to work in conjunction with each other.
That said, after you get the topology awareness into LM, you still need to specify your entry point, which orients the dependency tree from root to tip. Let's keep this conversation going because I think we can do what you're looking to do.
