[edit]Legend

Product Name 

The name of the software, linked to its Wikipedia article. Any software listed without being linked to its article, demonstrating its notability, will be removed.

IP SLAs Reports 

Feature reports on IP SLAs

Logical Grouping 

Support arranging the hosts or devices it monitors into user-defined groups

Trending 

Provide trending of network data over time

Trend Prediction 

The software feature algorithms designed to predict future network statistics

Auto Discovery 

The software automatically discover hosts or network devices it is connected to

Agent 

The product rely on a software agent that must run on hosts it is monitoring, so that data can be pushed back to a central server. "Supported" means that an agent may be used, but is not mandatory. An  SNMP daemon does not count as an agent.

SNMP 

Able to retrieve and report on  SNMP statistics

Syslog 

Able to receive and report on  Syslogs

Plugins 

Architecture of the software based on a number of 'plugins' that provide additional functionality

Triggers/Alerts 

Capable of detecting threshold violations in network data, and alerting the administrator in some form.

WebApp 

Runs as a web-based application

• No: There is no web-based frontend for this software.
• Viewing: Network data can be viewed in a graphical web-based frontend
• Acknowledging: Users can interact with the software through the web-based frontend to acknowledge alarms or manipulate other notifications.
• Reporting: Specific reports on network data can be configured by the user and executed through the web-based frontend.
• Full Control: ALL aspects of the product can be controlled through the web-based frontend, including low-level maintenance tasks such as software configuration and upgrades.

Distributed Monitoring 

Able to leverage more than one server to distribute the load of network monitoring.

Inventory 

Keeps a record of hardware and/or software inventory for the hosts and devices it monitors

Data Storage Method 

Main method used to store the network data it monitors.

License 

License released under (e.g.  GPL,  BSD license, etc.)

Maps 

Features graphical network maps that represent the hosts and devices it monitors, and the links between them.

Access Control 

Features user-level security, allowing an administrator to prevent access to certain parts of the product on a per-user or per-role basis

IPv6 

Supports monitoring  IPv6 hosts and/or devices, receiving IPv6 data, and running on an IPv6-enabled server. Supports communication using IPv6 to the SNMP agent via an IPv6 address.
