Network monitor tool

Hi Archers,

I am looking for a tool to monitor my servers as well as network devices. This tool should use TCP/UDP ping instead of icmp, such as hping, so that I can monitor the status of TCP/UDP ports that are opening.

If you know any program, please share it to me.:):):):):):)

Cheers
Son Dinh

Re: Network monitor tool

I like monit for this type of thing. It goes one better than using TCP ping as it actually speaks a whole bunch of protocols and can check the service is actually up and listening. If you want to go all out you could look at something like Nagios.

Nagios. It's not that complicated. I run it at home, work and my VPS's.

+1 for nagios. Pretty easy to configure and extremly easy to write plugins (you can use any language, you just need to print a string and return a value).

iperf is for measuring throughput. It has nothing to do with monitoring oO
