Smart is a monitoring tools with corolation engine. If you router
crashes, you will know about, and you will also know what's behind
that router that you just lost and then gives you the impact. It can
go up to servers.

Subject: [c-nsp] best fault management solutions?
I've had it with Ciscoworks.
I'm not new to getting LMS working properly, I'm just tired of
lowering my expectations. Device discovery is hit and miss, new
versions seem progressively worse, and the whole product is about as
ergonomic as a pile of broken glass. I've stripped it down to just
common services and DFM, but there just isn't enough value there
relative to resources.
So, I'm looking for DFM-like replacement recommendations - I currently
have configuration and performance management covered by rancid,
cacti, syslog-ng and a few other open source tools; and I have netflow
taken care of - I'm just having trouble finding a good solution for
device fault management (i.e. temp, fan, interface errors, queues,
broadcast rate, bgp neighbor state changes, etc) for a mostly-Cisco
environment.
I need something with a little bit of intelligence, not just a simple
trap forwarder. Have already evaluated Orion, but it has too many
extras that I don't need (i.e. netflow, traffic graphs, configs, et al
are already handled) and not enough of what I do need (device
awareness, alerting). Not concerned with cost and platform, thanks in
advance.
