Status Map Placement

[Richard Brynteson]

Does anyone have the syntac for the parent/child relationship stuff. 
The FAQ links are both broken and looking through the PDF doc, mentions
it and says:
 
<parent_host> command.  So, for instance, if I had a router and a
switch, would I add:
 
parent_host        router1
 
to the switch host command?

Define the router as a 'parent' to the switches in the hosts config
file.
