NetMRG is a tool for network monitoring, graphing and reporting. Based on RRDTOOL, the best of open source graphing systems, NetMRG is capable of creating graphs of any parameter of your network.
Here are some key features of "NetMRG":
Slide Show (global, per-group) w/ auto-scroll - allows you to see an entire device's graphs without doing anything, then move onto the next device.
Graph Templates - reduce the amount of work you do to add new devices
Events, Responses, and Notifications - get notified when key items in your network behave oddly.
Workday Highlighting - so you can tell when your customers are commonly in-office and when things are out-of-norm.
Several methods to gather information: SNMP, [My]SQL, or Scripts (use your favorite language)
Updater tool - very little admin interaction is required to stay current with NetMRG
Requirements:
PHP, Version >= 4.1
MySQL, Version >= 3.23
RRDTOOL, Version >= 1.0.28
Libxml2, Version >= 2.30
Libstdc++, Version >= 3.2; Versions earlier than this may compile just fine, but may
experience runtime issues. Specifically, we experienced software crashes on an SMP machine running version 2.96 that were resolved by upgrading to 3.2.
NET/UCD-SNMP, Version >= 4.2.2
What's New in This Release:
This release adds a Web Interface redesign to give more room for graphs and ease overall use, security enhancements behind the scenes to ensure correct permissions checking, a search interface that will search groups, devices, sub devices, and sub device parameters, and RRDtool 1.2 support (including graph smoothing).
It deprecates use of netmrg_cron.sh in favor of using netmrg-gatherer and migrates the bulk of the documentation to a wiki.
