Howdy,

Can anyone suggest a network monitoring system that knows the difference
between a cisco 1701 and a GSR 12810/6500, etc?

What I mean is, many times these days there are several different sub
systems you have to monitor inside of a router/switch and not just
interface utilization, the "CPU", and the "RAM".

Statistics such as CEF utilization, fabric utilization, PFC/DFC, various
line card statistics, etc?

Can anyone recommend anything other than "customize MRTG a lot" that we can
use to get a better look into these systems?

thanks,
-Drew

Have you looked at OpenNMS ??
