Web-based network management/monitoring
Posted: Thu Feb 10, 2011 7:50 am
Something that automatically discovers IP's on a given network/subnet, similar to nmap. Using this polled data the system should then use SNMP to gather as much detail of each as possible. Individual service monitoring would be abonus, if you can do this Windows or SNMP specifically I am not sure. We have a network of about 500-600 machines (sadly no one knows exactly because the network has grown organically over 15 years). I ran an nmap to build a list of some of the nodes, most of which have no friendly name to tell us whose computer it was, making remote assistance more difficult.
Ideally a system where nodes were detected in a polling fashion and organized into departments. Browsing the bandwidth, usage, services, etc of each node would then be a bonus.
I have Googled and found Cacti (PHP which is a big bonus) looks interesting but would prefer to view other options.
Know of any systems?
Cheers,
Alex
