Re: Network diagram app that shows realtime link utilizatin

we use cacti weathermap plugin, though obviously realtime has a
dependency on your sample interval. I'm presuming your definition
thereof isn't instantaneous monitoring of queue depth.

Thanks, I'll see if I can pull the correct OID and try it with the Dude again.

Also, thanks to everyone who has responded.  I realize the term "realtime" is subjective - I'm looking for 
near-realtime...maybe a 30 second interval.

I've been playing around with Intermapper for about 30 minutes now...i like this tool, but would like to see bitrates 
represented on the map as opposed to the "crawling ants".  clicking around to see if kind of view is available...

thanks again folks.  Good example, in my case anyway, of NANOG outperforming Google (or at least my crappy attempts 
at google search terms).

I monitor non-MT devices with the Dude.
As long as you know the OID, it works just fine.

Hi folks,

I wonder if anyone can recommend a network diagram tool that can show realtime link utilization via snmp?

Mikrotik's "The Dude" app actually does exactly what I'm looking for, but the snmp support for non-RouterOS devices 
seems to be lacking, as it simply won't enumerate my switch interfaces in order to capture utilization.

I've downloaded several trial tools (WhatsUp, NetCure, Solarwinds LANsurveyor etc.) but they don't serve this very 
basic need of mine to see the realtime link util in the diagram.

Thanks,
Hank Disuko
