SNMP Managers for Linux? 9
jjohn asks: "Just did a search on Slashdot and found no articles about SNMP. Is SNMP dead? If not, is there a GUI SNMP manager for Linux through which I can monitor the health of various network devices? What are folks using to automate network monitoring besides ping?"

BTW, in response to your questions:
Is SNMP dead? We can only wish...
Are there no graphical SNMP managers out there? No good ones for Linux... there's a tk version off UCD's webpage but that doesn't count.
Scotty perhaps? (Score:1)
It's a tcl/tk-kind-of-thing that has several useful tools for watching SNMP, and other sorts of network monitoring (ICMP). It had the ability to create some pretty reasonable network maps and do dynamic discovery (based on watching routing tables.)
PS. For SNMP there are also perl modules that are helpful for writing monitoring scripts.
mon (Score:1)
Mon (from Jim Trocki at Transmeta) can do snmp and other types of monitoring. The architecture is simple and felxible. The configuration is getting a bit kludge-like though.
Do not use the cmu snmp package. It isn't being developed anymore and it sucks. ucd snmp is much still being maintained and is much easier to use when setting up process and filesystem snmp monitoring.
