openwisp-monitoring 1.1

Need a quick overview? Try the OpenWISP Demo.

OpenWISP Monitoring is a network monitoring system written in Python and Django, designed to be extensible, programmable, scalable and easy to use by end users: once the system is configured, monitoring checks, alerts and metric collection happens automatically.

OpenWISP is not only an application designed for end users, but can also be used as a framework on which custom network automation solutions can be built on top of its building blocks.

Other popular building blocks that are part of the OpenWISP ecosystem are:

• openwisp-controller: network and WiFi controller: provisioning, configuration management, x509 PKI management and more; works on OpenWrt, but designed to work also on other systems.

• openwisp-network-topology: provides way to collect and visualize network topology data from dynamic mesh routing daemons or other network software (e.g.: OpenVPN); it can be used in conjunction with openwisp-monitoring to get a better idea of the state of the network

• openwisp-firmware-upgrader: automated firmware upgrades (single device or mass network upgrades)

• openwisp-radius: based on FreeRADIUS, allows to implement network access authentication systems like 802.1x WPA2 Enterprise, captive portal authentication, Hotspot 2.0 (802.11u)

• openwisp-ipam: it allows to manage the IP address space of networks
