Simple Cisco Network Management System

A C# Windows program for discovering a Cisco router network and monitoring the reliability and traffic on the connections.

To manange any the main problem is usually the reliablity of the connections over telecom company lines. These lines can start to give higher error rates without causing the line to fail. This program was designed to monitor the connections and indicate a failure if less than 97% of pings were successful.

A diagram of the network is displayed with colour indication of faulty routes or equipment, green indicate all interfaces are good, yellow shows that at least on interface is working and one has failed, red indicates that all connection to the equipment has failed.

The bottom window has a log of major events, most recent at the top. It also shows SNMP traps from devices. SNMP traps are also used to update the state of interfaces and connected Cisco devices.

The status bar shows minor events which are not logged.

The program uses the RRD Tool database to produce daily and monthly graphs of traffic on the interfaces.
