Depends on your requirements (of course). Depending on the device we monitor: - CPU usages (especially at routers and VPN devices) - Memory usages (not that important usually) - LAN Interfaces to other network components - WAN interfaces - Power Supplies (especially redundant PSUs) - Fans - Voltages (not that important) - Temperatures - Connections/Sessions (Firewalls and VPN devices) CU, Peter -- Peter Gritsch mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] web: http://snmp4nagios.sourceforge.net/ Using Tomcat but need to do more?
