[mrtg] Re: Monitoring sick routers

[Benjamin Madsen]

Take a look at tools like 'Big Brother' (www.bb4.com) or 'NetSaint'
(www.netsaint.org) that integrate with MRTG for their historical analysis.
These tools are designed more to handle this kind of function anyway.  I
have used Big Brother and liked it, but Net Saint looks like a really nice
tool as well.

Subject: [mrtg] Monitoring sick routers



I have a couple of Cisco 7202 routers that are acting very strange and would
like to be able to monitor them for reachability.  What can I trigger from
that will give me a "down" condition if the router is unreachable by MRTG?  

Most everything that I have tried to monitor gives me an error message when
the router is unreachable or it just ignores it.  I would like to use the
Threshold settings to page when this router is broken.

Thanks for your help...
