This is the direction we're headed... being able to get system (sipxecs / openuc) related stats for better monitoring.
We're doing this so that users with any monitoring solution can monitor sipxecs/openuc in the same manner as all their other equipment. As part of the openUC commercial solution we'll have our 'Assurance Services' that will be automagically configured by sipXconfig and provide monitoring capabilities. On the open source side it will be left open for folks to 'roll their own'. Mike On Mon, Sep 24, 2012 at 10:50 AM, Tony Graziano < tgrazi...@myitdepartment.net> wrote: > My last two cents on MRTG.
