1 Automate the monitoring of your Network through PMp 6th TF-NOC Meeting DUBLIN 5-6 June, 2012 By Wallemacq Pierre BELNET

2 Agenda Introduc=on Nagios through PMp PMp Why Nagios/OMD? Your configura=on in a few steps; Why PMp? Who s PMp? Whence? Conceptual Overview Installa=on Roadmap Ques=ons

3 Nagios through PMp Proac=ve Monitoring PlaOorm; Response to the configura=on of the network environment; Roots are in a L3 environment; Real- =me Nagios configura=on WebApp; Dynamic graphical representa=on of your network; Rules based; Understanding of your topology; Dynamic network survey based on itera=ve checks and automa=c analog change discovery ;

4 Why Nagios / OMD? Nagios: Widely used It is not only Nagios but also an ecosystem: GUI/addons: Icinga - Nagvis PNP4nagios Thruck shinken etc Wide collec=on of probes out of the shelve Lot of tools around it Builds on many year of development ( plugins, configura=on exper=se,..)

5 Why Nagios / OMD? OMD (Open Monitoring Distribu<on): Integra=on of a set of tool; Easy to deploy (package based) Integrates a lot of interes=ng tools, GUI Maps (Nagvis) /graphs (PNP4NAGIOS)/GUIs/WIKI.. Recent evolu=on in PMp actual environment; Before OMD, we had to install all the different components separately.. Could simply reuse the config + a few adapta=ons One config fits it all;

6 Why Nagios/ OMD?

7 Why Nagios/OMD?

8 Your configura<on in a few steps. Select the settings menu. Then go to Group

9 Your configura<on in a few steps. Notice the navigation bar You can use these buttons to either create/delete a group or add a user to a group

11 Your configura<on in a few steps. You presented with a list of networks. Now, either select the one you want to edit/delete or click add to create a new one

12 Your configura<on in few steps. Enter a network name Link this network to a group Name the management subnet Fill the Subnet information

13 Your configura<on in a few steps.

14 Your configura<on in a few steps. Select your device here BB interfaces are used to interconnect two devices are polled more often Interface are automatically selected if relevant for the monitoring

15 Your configura<on in a few steps.

16 Your configura<on in a few steps. Select Operations -> Topology. For graphs options: Settings -> Topology

17 Why PMp?

18 Why PMp? To simplify installa=on process; To simplify configura=on process; To simplify maintenance process; To benefit from the exper=se in the tools; No perfect solu=on: Ocen work on a device base and, Need development work to customize it.

19 And also To reduce Monitoring burden; To reduce TCO; Why PMp? To add flexibility. Tested today on Force10, cisco, Juniper, But first of all, To be PROACTIVE

20 Who s PMp? Pierre Wallemacq Network Belnet Belnet => 200 nodes. And a small team of enthousia=cs guys

21 Whence? 2002: Nagios first install Nagios is used for servers and the network; Watchlist PERL scripts to automate the configura=ons; : New features links mul=cast wheathermap NCT: First test to build auto discovery func=ons: NCT Automa=on of the network self ( configura=on is built through scripts running on the routers). 2011: NCT, becomes PMp

22 Whence? End Q Q Totally rewrinen repackaging through team work! Improved user experience (story board); Improved robustness; Improved logging: configuration:! contacts = main:0;add_user:1;del_user:1;add_user2group:1;del_group:1;! Generic front end Fasten display of new informa=on Almost ready for Open Source Own WEB site dedicated appliance PMp is now fully working and geqng ready to be distributed.

23 Whence, 1-2 xls, NCT

24 Whence: NCT
