[AusNOG] SNMP Monitoring

[ANSA SERVERS]

John has been having trouble replying (possibly because his email address isn’t a member of the list) so I have relayed the info for him and posted his response below..

We are not looking for something as advanced as Observium, seems very complicated and designed for big networks. We are only looking for monitoring on 6 24 port gigabit switches.


Does Observium allow the network graphs to be embedded into a website and how hard is it to implament.

I am personally swaying more towards PRTG as I have had experience with it before. Any other updates or suggestions would be much appreciated

+1 for Observium.

The fee for the “licensed” version is very reasonable and the customised alerting was perfect for what we were looking for.

Cheers,
Adrian

Yep, Observium is the ducks' guts!

For displaying in your portal or on your public website, use a small proxy script to use the Observium API to pull the graphs and pass them through, that way you don't need to be logged in to pull them :)

Hey Guys,

First time posting on here but curious to if anyone has any ideas on graph monitoring. We are currently using cacti but having alot of trouble getting the images to show on our network operations panel and on our website without being logged into the cacti admin interface. Possibly suspecting a config issue or bad installation

I tried following this but it didn’t work:

http://forums.cacti.net/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=42714

Open to other open source software and suggestions.

Software must be able to be embedded both into our public website as well as into our network operations centre and be able to poll as low as possible (preferably every minute via cron)

Please contact me off list for suggestions. Our email is noc at ausnetservers.net.au<mailto:noc at ausnetservers.net.au>
