Re:InterMapper and reporting facilities

- Do you need daily, weekly, monthly reports? Of what kinds of information? Something similar to MRTG or darkstat - http://members.optushome.com.au/emikulic/net/darkstat/ - Do you want reports of outages, traffic trends, utilization? Would be nice. - Do you care how the data is saved? Would text files suffice? Is an SQL database required? RRD, would be better. - If the data were saved in a SQL database, would you want direct access to the DBMS? Not necessary - How would you use this data? To help improve service? To look for trouble spots? To convince your boss you're doing a good job? :-) All the above One other thing: I would like to see some type of inventory management. Were you could Option, click or right click on the device/icon and get a basic spreadsheet that is in the program, that could list equipment type, software version, site contact, site hours, site address,... mike BomberJacket Networks
