Try the Centreon fork of Nagios, or Nagios itself.

Read the "Question Guidelines" link in my posting signature. We are always happy to help with specific problems/questions, but don't ask people to look things up for you. Putting "linux network monitoring utilities" into Google pulls up MANY things.

Edit: LQ has a poll on this: https://www.linuxquestions.org/quest...ar-4175596305/

Welcome to LQ!!! Here's the DDGoo I used (startpage.com looks better tho):
Quote:
beginner|tutorial simple|easy|trivial open source host monitoring ping report
I liked the 1st one: http://www.slac.stanford.edu/xorg/nmtf/nmtf-tools.html

I think startpage needs different keywords tho; Idk, sorry
(It's new to me; can anyone advise how to better use it?)

Edit: I got better Google results by changing ping report to alert
(I get lots of commercial products; maybe that's why OP specified 'free')
Quote:
beginner|tutorial simple|easy|trivial open source host monitoring alert
More: DDG gave some interesting different results!!! Like:
https://serverfault.com/questions/44...r-your-servers
https://serverfault.com/questions/17...itoring-system

p.s. No, I don't mean to OT this into a debate on 'search engines', sorry

You're welcome, but since you've 'resolved' the issue, it is usually a good thing to post what solution you came up with. Since you came to the community for assistance, providing these answers back to the community helps everyone.

I personally use Nagios. I have setup nagios on a Raspberry PI, VPS and even dedicated old computers before.

"Hear, hear!"

The thread that you have started will continue to exist ... forever.

Therefore, "think about the next guy." Please remember to be nice to the next(!) poor soul (who was just like you) who "searches," and who stumbles-upon this thread. Just a few paragraphs of follow-up comments can make all the difference between a "search hit" that is valuable, and one that is useless.

AtDhVaAnNkCsE == "Thanks in Advance!"
