Abstract: The algebra of eikonals $mathfrakE$ of a metric graph $Omega$ is an operator $C^{\ast }$-algebra determined by dynamical system with boundary control that describes wave propagation on the graph. In this paper, two canonical block forms (algebraic and geometric) of the algebra $mathfrakE$ are provided for an arbitrary connected locally compact graph. These forms determine some metric graphs (frames) $mathfrak{F}^{,ma}$ and $mathfrak{F}^{,mg}$. Frame $mathfrak{F}^{,ma}$ is determined by the boundary inverse data. Frame $mathfrak{F}^{,mg}$ is related to graph geometry. A class of ordinary graphs is introduced, whose frames are identical: $mathfrak{F}^{,ma}equivmathfrak{F}^{,mg}$. The results are supposed to be used in the inverse problem that consists in determination of the graph from its boundary inverse data.
