nrpe is used to execute Nagios plugins on remote hosts and report the results
to the main Nagios server. From the Nagios homepage:
Allows you to execute "local" plugins (like check_disk, check_procs, etc.) on
remote hosts. The check_nrpe plugin is called from Nagios and actually makes
the plugin requests to the remote host. Requires that nrpe be running on the
remote host (either as a standalone daemon or as a service under inetd).
The Nagios Service Check Acceptor (NSCA) is used to send service check
results to a central Nagios server. This consists of the "nsca" daemon
which runs on the main Nagios server and accepts results and the
"send_nsca" client which is used to send results to the server.

Pancho was written with the goal of allowing network
administrators make a change to a group of Cisco routers
without being required to log into each host.
Pancho also provides the flexibility to allow admins to
use its function against a single host, a select group
or the entire whole. In addition to changes to current
configurations on remote routers, pancho is also capable
of archiving router configurations manually or through
automated runs.
Support is provided for Cisco, Foundry, Nortel/Alteon,
Avaya, or Dell PowerConnect devices.
This is the PERL 5.8 version of Pandora FMS agent. This includes all the
advanced features included in 3.0 version, and will be the default agent
in future versions.
Pandora FMS is a monitoring Open Source software. It watches your systems and
applications, and allows you to know the status of any element of those systems.
Pandora FMS could detect a network interface down, a defacement in your
website, a memory leak in one of your server application, or the movement of
any value of the NASDAQ new technology market. Pandora FMS could send out SMS
message when your systems fails... or when Google's value drop below US348.60?
Pandora FMS runs on any operating system, with specific agents for each
platform, gathering data and sending it to a server, it has specific agents for
GNU/Linux, AIX, Solaris, HP-UX, BSD/IPSO, and Windows 2000, XP and 2003.
Pandora FMS can also monitor any kind of TCP/IP service, without the need to
install agents, and monitor network systems such as load balancers, routers,
switches, operating systems, applications, or simply printers if you need.
Pandora FMS also supports SNMP for collecting data and for receiving traps.
A few examples of common resources monitored by Pandora FMS could be processor
load, disk and memory usage, running processes, log files, environmental
factors such as temperature, or application values like strings contained in
web pages or any possible way to collect data in an automatic way.
pmacct is a set of network tools to gather IP traffic
informations (bytes counter and number of packets); aggregation
of statistics is done using simple primitives (MAC addresses,
source host, destination host, ports and ip protocols) that can
be used alone or combined together to form complex aggregation
methods; counters are either global or historical (broken at
fixed timeslots). Data is either stored in a memory table,
pulled to stdout or in a SQL database (MySQL or PostgreSQL).
Gathering packets off the wire is done either using pcap
library (and promiscuous mode of the listening interface) or
reading Netflow packets coming from the network.
Skylable Sx is a reliable, fully distributed cluster solution for your data
storage needs. With Sx you can aggregate the disk space available on multiple
servers and merge it into a single storage system. The cluster makes sure that
your data is always replicated over multiple nodes (the exact number of copies
is defined by the sysadmin) and synchronized. Additionally Sx has built-in
support for deduplication, client-side encryption, on-the-fly compression and
much more.
The subcalc utility is used for subnet calculation and IPv6 DNS PTR
record generation. subcalc takes command line arguments in a similar
format to ifconfig(8) so the synopsis should be familiar to the user.
Given an address family, address and a netmask/prefix length, subcalc
will calculate the number of hosts and address ranges of the specific
network.
SNMPTT (SNMP Trap Translator) is an SNMP trap handler written in Perl
for use with the Net-SNMP. Easy to setup and use.
