Hi - I was interested in finding out what software applications other ISPs
are using for network monitoring? For example:
1) Overall network health - uptime reports
2) Backup router config automatically
3) Bandwidth reporting (or integration with an MRTG-type app)
4) SNMP trap support (BGP/OSPF session drops - emails out)
5) Database back end (port info into or over to other apps)
I'm just looking for something well rounded for a small ISP. I've heard
about OpenNMS and other apps but I'd like to get everyone's feedback.
Thanks!
-Charlie
