Remote Monitoring

[Chris Janicki]

Our company produces a fault management system that specializes in remote 
notification.  It doesn't have an SNMP/IP polling front end... it relies 
on hardware, customer scripts, or other software apps (like those 
mentioned already) to generate text messages which our programmable rule 
tree interprets, parses, thresholds, generates/clears alerts, etc.  It 
then can page based on alert, duty schedules, etc.

The two products mentioned so far look good for detecting host problems, 
but our product (Augur) might be a useful add-on for its paging 
capabilities and maybe for its rule tree and front-end too.  

We normally sell expensive licenses to big telco companies, but we're 
always interested in integration possibilities, so we might be able to 
give you freebie licenses if you wanted to integrate to another product 
and tell us how it goes.  We could probably do most of the configuration 
too if you provide the expertise/documentation for the SNMP/IP product 
you choose.  Let me know.
