Hey guys,

I need to monitor a clients network and provide monthly reports on uptime and availability.

Most Microtic router boards come with THE DUDE on it that you could use

Or you can run the old legacy THE DUDE on a PC or server
I would recomend a HEX or HEXs board from them or here is the download lin k to the legacy one

Download The Dude - MajorGeeks

The Dude will automatically scan all devices within specified subnets, draw and layout a map of your networks, monitor your devices' services, and alert you if a service has problems. It will automatically scan all devices within specified subnets, draw, and layout a map of your networks...

We use a combination of Dude and zabbix/grafana to monitor our ISP network.
Dude works great for monitoring our Mikrotik devices , Zabbix is free and works on standalone server ,
I believe the have cloud options as well , Grafana give a beautiful graphing interface for everything.
