[jffnms-users] A conundrum

Thu, 21 Jul 2005 09:45:43 -0700

First off I would like to commend everyone who has worked on developing this solution.  You have done a splendid job. 

Now down to business.

I manage several small networks at locations scattered across the US.  Most of these networks consist of a router with a public IP address doing NAT for a LAN that is using all private addresses.  Monitoring the main routers isn't a problem, but there are several devices on the LAN that I would like to be able to monitor as well.  Is there a way I can do this with out putting a satellite JFFNMS server at every location?  Most of the devices I need to monitor are capable of sending SNMP traps, but I'm thinking that probably won't work because the traps will appear to be coming from the gateway router.  I've also thought about establishing a VPN tunnel from my JFFNMS server to the gateway router, but that presents the problem of multiple hosts having the same private IP address.  Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
