We've just deployed Intermapper to do all of our device polling, link status 
and topology mapping.  Works very well and looks real pretty.

For graphing, we use cacti with the Discovery and Autom8 plugins.

For SNMP trap parsing, we use SNMPTT.

We're currently evaluating Splunk to eat the SNMP trap and syslog data from our 
gear and do cool stuff with it.

Last on my list of tools to try is Cisco NCM as a replacement for RANCID.  
RANCID is amazing, but when we have hundreds of devices with exactly the same 
base configs on them, something a little more sophisticated than RANCID is 
required to keep all of those configs in sync.

I'm getting ready to do an eval of Monolith Software's monitoring/management 
product. They have some very nice multi-tenant dashboarding and reporting 
capabilities and are extremely scalable.

ISP

Hello,
What solutions do you guys in the fixed network business/ISPs use to provide 
customer portals for network KPI reporting to customers in a fixed network on 
real time basis. The KPI in question are network availability, utilization, 
memory/cpu of managed routers/firewall, jitter, packet loss etc in a multi 
vendor environment.


What would you recommend especially in the licensed/supported options and not 
the free ones like Zabbix, Cacti, MRTG etc. This solution should scale well for 
hundreds of thousand of clients.

We have been using Orion NPM and it pretty much does the job but would wish to 
move to something more scalable for SP environment.

Regards,
Alex.
