Project DescriptionMonitoring tools hopes to one day be a useful collection of tools that allow system administrators, developers, etc. to have a heads-up view of their network.
Monitors Tools is at the moment a solution with a single project called Pinger that allows for instant monitoring of hosts by Name or IP via PING. Host entries are stored in a SQLite database and can be added, removed or updated at will.
Dependencies include
These were the easiest for me to get up and running.
Pinger is really simple to use:
- On first run it creates its database and populates it with a localhost entry.
- Adding new hosts can be achieved by pressing insert.
- Removing hosts can be done by selecting them and pressing delete.
- Edit hosts by Double-clicking them
Pinger will ping each host once a second, unless a host is still waiting for a response or a timeout. Hosts that give a ping result go green, otherwise they go red or orange depending on their status
