I poll my PacketFlux gear using Nagios and SNMP, and Nagios is already configured to alert me using an email-to-SMS gateway, so I can get temperature or voltage alerts pretty easily, and add new items to monitor without much hassle..

However, SNMP as flawed as it might be, is the only standard that is nearly universal (because some implementations are better than others). bp <part15sbs{at}gmail{dot}com> On 5/8/2024 11:30 AM, Chuck McCown via AF wrote: We are needing to add some monitoring of old fashioned alarm contacts in one of our sites. In the past I used Netguardians. Not sure what Forrest has. Is SNMP still the defacto NMS comm method or are there better more modern stuff out there we should be looking at?
