Hi,

It's looking like running all of our traps and syslog through a couple=20
of relay devices (and then onwards to the various NMS's) would be quite=20
a win for us.

These relay devices just need to be "dumb" forwarders (we don't require=20
any filtering or storing, just reflection), but we need an HA pair=20
(across two sites) without creating duplicates.

I have the coding skills to make this myself, but as coding skills come=20
and go in our network team, we are looking for a commerical product so=20
it will continnue to work after I get:  hit by a bus / amnesia / visions

of grandeur.

Any recommendations / experience? This needs to scale to ~1,500 devices.

Thanks,

Sam
