Hi Charlie - We use JFFNMS here (http://www.jffnms.org/). We have it monitoring BGP with our 6 backbone providers, all of our T1's (300 or so), DSL lines, dedicated servers, backing up all of our router configs, talking to our F5s, pretty much everything you are asking for. We use it extensively to grab traps and notify my NOC of any problems. Overall I would say that it is monitoring over 15,000 connections and pieces of hardware. We have its bandwidth monitoring and tracking talking directly to our billing engine and allow our customers the ability to log into it and view all of their stats as well. We don't use it to monitor uptime as we utilize different hardware for that but my guess is that with some minor tweaking it could do that as well. Hope this helps.

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
