The graphical map is working, but to be honest it's not especially useful in 
7.5, hopefully the 7.6 implementation is better.
It can be used to get an overview of which VMs are being backed up, as long as 
the name in virtual center is the exact same (case sensitive) as the client 
resource in networker.

No SDK needed, just the networker client at the vc server and the basic setup 
from the networker gui. Some firewall ports had to be opened, but I don't 
remember exactly which ones it was.

If your sync with vc is working, it could be something silly such as client 
side java issues, preventing the tree-view from working.
