Hi,

 

I was hoping that someone can point me in the right direction.  I'm
looking to put together a small device (4521-30 or 4826-50) that will
accomplish a few things:

 

1 - Network Monitoring -basic nagios system

2 - Data Collection - Using cacti/rrdtool

3 - Remote Console - need something that we can run GNOME/Desktop on so
that we can remote in, and use the device's local browser
(Firefox/Opera) to configure network devices ranging from Copiers,
printers, IP phones, access points.  If it has a web based GUI we need
to access it.

 

I'm sure that for the first two items, the 4511 would do.  I don't know
if we'll need to jump all the way up to a 5501 just to get the GUI to
work.  We'll want something debian based, since I'm sure we'll find some
more toys that we'll run on these boxes.  We're trying to eliminate the
need for us to have a full blown PC at each different client location.
Many times, the only end user devices are thin clients and we need to
configure/check the config of different devices.

 

Anyone done anything like this or know of any sources to start with?

 

Thanks in Advance.
