We have over 4000 ports to monitor in our network, and we currently use a Windoze product PRTG that does a decent job of graphing relationship data from a variety of data sources such as SNMP. It is a snap to setup, you can choose tiled layouts so you can view multiple graphs on one web page (it uses a web server to display data), and you can setup error notifications/threshold notifications via colorization and email alerts. Its pretty handy, but it costs a lot of money to licence per port, so an open source machine that could do half of this would be amazing.

Thanks in advance,

Mike

What about http://www.cacti.net/ or http://www.nagios.org/
There are many of these systems which can be find with google.

Those are both very good tools, thanks for the info! I was suggesting a quick and dirty template that would incorporate something like nagios in a small linux package that you can install on the fly and have running in seconds. I have no experiencing in removing packages and unnecessary files from a linux OS to trim it down, thus the suggestion.
