We have Nagios for monitoring/alerting on:

- wireless network components : up/down, flapping, signal levels, is ssh 
interface responding?
- routers: up/down, flapping, utilization, is ssh interface responding?
- UPS: up/down, battery capacity, battery status, internal temperature, line 
power status, load capacity, is telnet interface responding?
- PDU (power distribution unit): up/down, is telnet interface responding?
- switches: up/down, is telnet interface responding?
- cluster monitoring (alert if XX number of CPEs of a particular AP goes into 
"Warning", "Critical", or "Down" status)
- linux server: up/down, current load, current users, rootpartition status, 
swap memory usage, total processes, are web & ssh interfaces responding?

Cacti for graphing:

- routers: interface traffic counters, CPU usage, memory usage
- linux servers: disk space, CPU usage, load average, memory usage,

  What are you using it for?  If it's for monitoring servers (disk/cpu usage 
and such) Dude is a joke.  If it's for an easy GUI to position things relative 
to one another, Nagios is going to be difficult.

    I'd like to hear from people who have switched from one of these free
    products to the other.

    I'm considering a switch from Nagios to The Dude myself, but I'd like to
    hear pros & cons of either.

    What did you switch from/to, and why?

    Thanks !
