Hi I have been tasked to develop a good network for a Bank and i have also been tasked to get a good monitoring tool for the Bank's local network and Service providers network. i would like to ask the community to help recommend the best tool out there that can help me do this

Hi Joshua, What kind of monitoring are we talking about ? Network services, performance, traffic, latency, ... ? You might want to take a look at some popular Open Source tools, such as: http://www.nagios.org/ http://www.zabbix.com/ http://www.hyperic.com/ http://www.opennms.org/wiki/Main_Page http://www.cacti.net/ http://oss.oetiker.ch/smokeping/ ... to get an idea of what's possible.
