Braa is a tool for making SNMP queries. It is able to query
hundreds or thousands of hosts simultaneously, while being
completely single-threaded. It does not need any SNMP
libraries, as it is equipped with its own SNMP engine. However,
it's good to have a complete SNMP package including
"snmptranslate" installed somewhere, because for speed reasons,
there is no ASN.1 parser in Braa, and all the SNMP OIDs need to
be specified numerically.
Disco is a passive IP discovery and fingerprinting utility
designed to sit on segments distributed throughout a network to
discover unique IP's on the network. In addition to IP
discovery disco has the ability to passively fingerprint TCP
SYN packets. The intention is for disco to discover IP's on the
network, fingerprint the packet if necessary, and load into the
Gherkin Scan Manager database for targeted host scans.
EtherApe is a graphical network monitor for Unix modeled after Etherman.
Featuring link layer, IP and TCP modes, it displays network activity
graphically. Hosts and links change in size with traffic. Color coded
protocols display. It supports Ethernet, FDDI, Token Ring, ISDN, PPP,
SLIP, and WLAN devices, plus several encapsulation formats. It can
filter traffic to be shown, and can read packets from a file as well as
live from the network. Node statistics can be exported.
YANG is a data modeling language for NETCONF (RFC4741), developed
by the IETF NETMOD WG.
pyang is a YANG validator, transformator and code generator, written
in python. It can be used to validate YANG modules for correctness,
to transform YANG modules into other formats, and to generate code
from the modules.
pyang is compatible with

iftop listens to network traffic on a named interface, or
on the first interface it can find which looks like an
external interface if none is specified, and displays a
table of current bandwidth usage by pairs of hosts. iftop
must be run with sufficient permissions to monitor all
network traffic on the interface; see pcap(3) for more
information, but on most systems this means that it must
be run as root.
The Multi Router Traffic Grapher (MRTG) is a tool to monitor the traffic
load on network-links. MRTG generates HTML pages containing PNG images which
provide a LIVE visual representation of this traffic. Check
for an example. MRTG is based on Perl and C and works under UNIX and Windows
NT.
MRTG is being successfully used on many sites around the net.
Check the MRTG-Site-Map, which is at:

Cactid is a poller for Cacti that primarily strives to be as fast as
possible. For this reason it is written in native C, makes use of POSIX
threads, and is linked directly against the net-snmp library for
minmumal SNMP polling overhead. Cactid is a replacement for the default
cmd.php poller so you must decide if using Cactid makes sense for your
installation.
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 Net::SNMP module implements an object oriented interface to the
Simple Network Management Protocol. Perl applications can use the
module to retrieve or update information on a remote host using the
SNMP protocol. The module supports SNMP version-1, SNMP version-2c
(Community-Based SNMPv2), and SNMP version-3. The Net::SNMP module
assumes that the user has a basic understanding of the Simple Network
Management Protocol and related network management concepts.
rtGui is a web based front end for rTorrent - a command line

with the rTorrent client.
