Unit 25

Depending on the size of your operation, free, open-source software may be mandatory, or deeply-supported commercial software may be … very mandatory. Sometimes these two may actually be one and the same. To illustrate this, I’ll start this discussion with open-source options.

Open-Source Network Monitoring Software

Zabbix

Doing like it’s 2012: ntop
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ntop

Doing it like 2021: ntopng
(Just about any open-source tool you’ll find with “ng” on the end is “next generation”.)
