Networking Monitoring & Management

• Nagios - well known monitoring package for Linux

• MRTG - Multie Router Traffic Grapher, http://people.ee.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/mrtg/

• RRRdtool - reimplementation of MRTG. Way faster and more flexible: http://people.ee.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/rrdtool/

• Routers2.cgi - MRTG frontend, works fairly well: http://www.steveshipway.org/software/rrd/f_routers.html

• But Cacti is better. It's a complete network graphing solution that uses RRDTool and MySQL for polling, graph templating, data acquisition, and user management. Scales well and looks sweet. http://www.cacti.net/

• Howto on setting up MRTG and routers2.cgi: http://www.networknewz.com/2004/0510.html

• Netstats, something I might setup (or something like it): http://wwwstats.net.wisc.edu/

• Remstats looks kinda interesting, as a way of pulling stats from various systems: http://remstats.sourceforge.net/release/index.html
