Actually you probably need to look at VitalNet.. This is a competing
product
to Concorde NetHealth... It provides all the RMON2 and MIB polling and can be setup with thresholds... Depending on what you are looking for you may still want to look at mrtg and rrd which can poll mib devices as well as execute scripts based on min/masx thresholds.

Lee,
Lucent's VitalSuite (either SP or Enterprise) software is definitely worth a look. You can find detailed information about it on their web site: http://www.lucentnps.com/software/

I have been handed the task of finding a monitoring/trending package for our network and systems.
I will be looking at the package's collection mechanism for flexibility (snmp gets, traps, rmon), and the variety/configurability of the reports it can produce. The package should be able to provide (configurable) alerts when threshholds are met/surpassed.
I have been evaluating Concord's eHealth Suite, and would like to evaluate other options before I commit to a particular package.
Any feedback would be great.
