Rancid monitors a router's (or device's) configuration, including software
and hardware (cards, serial numbers, etc), using CVS. Rancid currently
supports Bay routers, Cisco routers, Juniper routers, Catalyst switches,
Foundry switches, Redback NASs, ADC EZT3 muxes, MRTd (and thus likely IRRd),
Alteon switches, HP procurve switches, Hitachi routers.
Rancid logs into each of the devices in a router table file, runs various
commands, chomps the output, and emails any differences ( sample) from
the previous collection to a mail list.
A looking glass is also included with rancid, based on Ed Kern's in use on
http://nitrous.digex.net/. Rancid version has added functions, supports cisco,
juniper, and foundry and uses the login scripts that come with rancid;
so it can use rsh, telnet, or ssh to connect to your router(s).

of jobs that have already run. It obtains its information from your catalog
database. Aside from a nice graphical display, it provides summaries of your
jobs, as well as graphs of job usage. This is a fairly high level bacula
management tool. Here are a few points that one user made concerning this
important tool:
- It is web-based so can be accessed from anywhere.
- It is "read only" users can examine the state of the backups but not write
to anything and therefore do no damage
- It packs a phenomenal amount of information into a single web-page - that I
credit as being very good design!
The documentation for bacula-web can be found in a separate bacula-web
document in the bacula-docs release.

NDPMon, Neighbor Discovery Protocol Monitor, is a tool working with
ICMPv6 packets. NDPMon observes the local network to see if nodes
using neighbor discovery messages behave properly. When it detects
a suspicious Neighbor Discovery message, it notifies the administrator
by writing in the syslog and in some cases by sending an email
report.
