Net Mgmt Tools and supporting OS

[lists at memetic.org (Adam Armstrong)]

Hi Vitto,

The tools you use depend massively on the kind of network you're building.

Things I'd look at would be RANCID, Cricket + genrtrconfig, Cacti, 
jffnms, mon from kernel.org, Nagios, ZenOSS, OpenNMS and my own NMS, 
Observer (http://www.observer.org).

You'll find lots of help with all of these tools from the mailling lists 
and forums related to them.

Good Luck!
