Hello,
I believe there is a need for good monitoring tool,
and none of existing tools qualify.
As it stands now, I am using mix of different tools, quite similiar to
each other... ie netsaint, mrtg, smokeping and monit.
And add to that syslog with syslog monitoring tools, add ipsec for logging
Don't know all the tools u are talking about, but maybe BigBrother

so once it wraps and starts to overwrite old data, it is lost.
