That's exactly it. The Dude makes it easy to visualize. I might keep it just to have a backhaul map.

I’ve not found anything that works as well as The Dude goes for mapping… I really like being able to see links w/ throughput at a glance. It does look like OpenNMS does maps, but judging by the demo, it feels more clunky and performs worse than Dude. Currently we’re using PRTG for monitoring and Dude for map.

I'd suggest running the v4 beta on a VM and backup with snapshots. You can still do the network map, that's the only reason I have it around.

OpenNMS is a good option, but I don't think there's a map.

    I'm working to centralize some monitoring as my network has
    grown. My current hardware includes Ubiquiti, Cambium, and
    Mikrotik. If I setup something like OpenNMS, would there be any
    benefit / usefulness to also running The Dude in it's current version?

    Thanks - Chris
