Router? Further to what Jeff said, we also monitor NTP sync status and telnet. We tend to run things at varying intervals though... ifstatus is checked every time we get an SNMP iface down trap and otherwise once every 5 mins, NTP is checked once a day, etc, etc. Ras Using Tomcat but need to do more?

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?
