Hi Observium Team,
We've been running Observium Professional version for many months now. It's nicely designed and polished software. I would recommend it. We used to monitor with Cacti but now we are almost 100% with Observium.
The IP SLA Jitter monitoring is great. (CISCO-RTTMON-MIB) Observium currently picks up and records this value. Object rttMonLatestRttOperCompletionTime OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.42.1.2.10.1.1 http://tools.cisco.com/Support/SNMP/do/BrowseOID.do?local=en&translate=T...http://tools.cisco.com/Support/SNMP/do/BrowseOID.do?local=en&translate=Translate&objectInput=rttMonLatestRttOperCompletionTime#oidContent [cid:image002.jpg@01CFE3C7.D39750E0]
We have 2 values missing in our IPSLA values that we monitor and we'd love to see in Observium.
For us (and most likely others) the IP SLA is missing 2 critical values: (also in CISCO-RTTMON-MIB) http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/ios/12_4/ip_sla/configuration/guide/hsl...
1. MOS - Mean Opinion Scores Object rttMonLatestJitterOperMOS OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.42.1.5.2.1.42 http://tools.cisco.com/Support/SNMP/do/BrowseOID.do?local=en&translate=T...http://tools.cisco.com/Support/SNMP/do/BrowseOID.do?local=en&translate=Translate&objectInput=1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.42.1.5.2.1.42#oidContent
Sample Value from SW28-TIMWC01: SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.9.9.42.1.5.2.1.42.10 = Gauge32: 434
2. ICPIF - International Calculated Planning Impairment Factor Object rttMonLatestJitterOperICPIF OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.42.1.5.2.1.43 http://tools.cisco.com/Support/SNMP/do/BrowseOID.do?local=en&translate=T...
Sample Value from SW28-TIMWC01: SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.9.9.42.1.5.2.1.43.10 = Gauge32: 1
We have Alerts setup in Cacti to notify us when the MOS value goes below 400. We'd love to have this in Observium and eliminate our need to have alerts in Cacti.
Here's a sample of the MOS & ICPIF graph in Cacti. [cid:image006.jpg@01CFE3C7.D39750E0]
Thanks.
