SNMP
From TrustixWiki
Simple Network Management Protocol is the basis for many network monitoring and management tools. MRTG, Cricket, and Cacti are three examples.
Both TSL 3.0 and 2.2 include net-snmp server and client tools.
The latter has it as contrib package, so you have to enable contrib to swup it.
To install snmp server tools, just issue swup --install net-snmp
Cricket and Cacti are based on the 'round robin database' (rrdtool). The swup command swup --install rrdtool-perl will install the rrdtool packages you need to use them.
http://www.net-snmp.org/ Net-SNMP source and documentation http://people.ee.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/mrtg/ MRTG -- available in a swup repository near you http://cricket.sourceforge.net/ Cricket -- you need apache, rrdtool, rrdtool-libs, rrdtool-perl, perl http://www.cacti.net/ Cacti -- you need apache, php, php-cli, php-mysql, rrdtool, rrdtool-libs. You need a mysql server; it can be on the Apache/Cacti? server or on another server. Go set up MySQL and then come back here.
