Network Administration Visualized

Post by knobdy »

I see that NAV (a project I just saw for the first time today) is integrated with Cricket.

Just wondering if anyone has given any thought to integrating it with Cacti as opposed to developing all of the various plugins that are going right now, and which do a lot of the same thing?

Or, has anyone used this and found it lacking?

That's the one. It appears to be fairly mature...and has quite a few features.

I found it yesterday while looking through sourceforge's forums for the cisco-centric open source project. Which, btw, has a couple of PHP scripts that would also - I think - plug in nicely to Cacti. The acl script would be one of them...though its documentation seems to state you have to already have a telnet session open I'm sure that can be programmed as well using Net:Telnet.

I would love to not only be able to see what my network devices are doing but to edit them, like ACLs and port speeds and such, from within Cacti. Then maybe I could talk the rest of my team into throwing out that crappy CiscoWorks software! :)
