Summary

Network device up/down status monitoring tool

Description

Would anybody be interested in helping with a network monitoring tool that monitors the status of devices and can be set up to email/text down notifications? There's still a lot to do with it but the notif script, database, and portions of the GUI are finished. Wouldn't mind some help with an installer, documentation, and any other improvements that you may think of.

@Nanos hmm no let me clarify.
Notifs are achieved via email, or email to MMS.

I personally use uptime robot to monitor my public facing servers, and use the script to monitor internal things like my security cameras. Also use it at work where our wan spreads across 50+ buildings with over 5,000 devices that we need to know if they go down. That doesn't include PCs, we don't care if they're up/down.

@Nanos that's where email->MMS comes in.
No need, I use PHPMailer.

@Nanos you can go ahead and poke around in the code. It uses external mail servers tho.
