IT monitoring System offers you the sting with open source monitoring by providing a simple to put in and assemble a system that delivers increased functionality during an extremely scalable, commercially supported system. Ngaios provides support to administrator(s) for police investigation issues before users. The present paper deals with the Implementation and Analysis for IT monitoring through open source software (OSS) technique with the help of open source software established with the basic monitoring server, running a Linux based operating system using a Multi Router Traffic Grapher (MRTG) to gather statistics from the target machine via Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). The foundation of our IT monitoring focuses on our physical or virtual devices, called ‘hosts’ – such as a Windows server, Linux server, Cisco router, Nokia firewall, VMware virtual machine, etc. and these are often the lowest level of the ‘stacks’ – and we ensure they are up by pinging them. Once configured, this allows us a view into the devices we have added and notifies which ones are up or down – allowing us to see if a device has crashed or been powered off. This minimal setup establishes the foundational baseline that is important to be regularly reviewed as part of a proactive strategy to manage the day to day operations of a server environment used for NIC network cluster and server cluster proactive services 24x7 monitoring to testing and execution.
