Open source network monitoring tools

,----[ Quote ]
| As virtualized infrastructure and cloud 
| computing force businesses to reevaluate the 
| broader issue of acceptable network service 
| levels, open source network monitoring tools 
| are attracting heightened interest.
| 
| Both network administrators and open source 
| advocates say the flexibility these tools 
| promise at a relatively reasonable cost has 
| made them a viable alternative to software 
| offered by some of the largest enterprise 
| technology companies.

Linux device monitors networks

,----[ Quote ]
| Italy-based KDev has found another use for its tiny, cellular radio-equipped
| Linux box. In its newest "Easy Guardian" iteration, the Acme FoxBox works as
| a network monitor that uses ICMP pings, SNMP scans, and text messaging to
| alert users to network events.

| to mobile phones; Snort is the most widely used Intrusion Detection System 
| (IDS) software and Open Office is taking a bite out of Microsoft's dominance 
| of the office suite market.
