Web-based Network Monitoring Program for Linux and Unix

Version: 0.31 beta

Overview

nPULSE is a web-based network monitoring package for Linux and Unix-like operating systems. It can quickly monitor tens, hundreds, even thousands of sites/devices at a time on multiple ports. nPULSE is written in Perl 5 and comes with its own mini web server for extra security.

This standard version of nPULSE is limited to checking the device and multi-port status (up/down) of each network device. For more detailed checking and monitoring use nPULSE Professional.

Documentation

Sorry, I've not had the time yet...

Just go to the home page and click on the 'setup' button. Then either manually enter the ip addresses (NUMERIC ONLY), or enter a numeric ip address range into the discover box and let it figure out the config file.

Example:
192.168.0.1-3,5

This checks addresses 192.168.0.1, 192.168.0.2, 192.168.0.3, 192.168.0.5.

Then click on the 'Recheck' or 'Auto Check' button to start monitoring.

The rest should be fairly intuitive. Note: if browser timeouts occur, go to the Status page and wait for scan completion.
