i wanted some software which is displayed at the monitor showing all devices,and if some thing is down shows it in red......spiceworkd is too much for that simple work
have you tried zabbix?

its very simple to use
can we install zabbix on windows platforms
i was concerned real time monitoring of devices based on ip addresses response,,,
no further comments,
yes u can use zabbix on windows
i just installed zabbix,i liked it,i have to ask one question about it, in discovery status it olny shows computers out of ip ranges which are on,i need all of them in the list to monitor them ,

second when i try to create a host manually,i only want to see host is up or down on the basis of ping,but there is no option there for icmp/ping while creating a host,it only shows ip address and port....help needed...thanks
