I have been using Zenoss for some time now (just for very simple stuff - 
availability & Reporting) and love it. Great work guys...

However, I want to move to the next step and start to set the system so I can 
recieve alerts when certain thresholds on my routers (30+) are exceeded.

The big one is OS>ipsec0 - IFOutOctets are > 50Bytes for 3 or more counts. 
(this is the figure on the RRD graphs.)

The routers I am using are the "secure computing" "snapgear" range. They are 
excelent routers that run the UC (embedded) Linux  Kernel.

I have done benchmarking on my network and have arrived at that figure as the 
practical maximum before Voice quality (VOIP) is degraded.

The issues I have encountered:
1. The brand of router I does not report to the SNMPD the correct speed so the 
Ipsec0 interface reports speed as "Unkown" so the speed.here command is not 
useful to me. I have even manually changed the snmpd.conf file on the router to 
add the line: 
interface ipsec0 ppp 60000
And remodelled the device.

2. I can't find where to manually place the threshold data.

3. I don't know how 60K in the RRD graphs relate to real world data. Nor the 
figure I should be putting in my threshold information.

Can anyone put me on the irght track?
