network monitoring

cícavole · 03-10-2021, 01:56 PM

Hello,

does anyone have a tip on software for network monitoring on about 8 servers?
something like ntopng ...

To give you an idea, pfSense runs on the router, followed by reverse prozxy (nginx) which handles the forwarding of http requests to
individual VPS + solves certification (LetsEncrypt) Debians and 1x Ubuntu server usually run in the network

Thanks a lot..

Well, "network monitoring" is a broad statement. Do you mean from a system security standpoint? Traffic? Load? Lots of pieces there. I'd suggest a tool like Nagios or Zabbix, which has a LOT of plugins for monitoring different network statistics, and frameworks that would let you write your own to suit you. And they'd also allow you to monitor things like CPU, RAM, disk, and other server-related items as well.

I mainly need VPS monitoring and overall network operation.

Ok...again, I'd suggest either of the two solutions mentioned, but would lean towards Nagios.
