Bluecat Networks Adonis Appliance

A coworker in the PC Infrastructure team tried to get MOM to monitor the firms new DNS/DHCP appliance. MOM apparently crashed trying to process the MIB. He has asked me if Hobbit can monitor his device. I of course have assured him that it can. I'm thinking Devmon, but the device also offers ssh access to some type of console (I'm getting the manual tomorrow). Has anyone monitored one of these yet, and if so, any suggestions?

Out-of-the-box, Hobbit does ssh, dns & dig, like this:
1.2.3.4 some.server.com # ssh dns dig
DHCP is something else. I wouldn't be surprised if there was a DHCP
tester for Big Brother on the deadcat.net site. If so, it shouldn't
take too long to port it.

Devmon is probably the easiest way to go. If there are some helpful stats that are only available via the ssh console, and if it will allow use of an ssh-key, you could write an extension script that will login and perform commands and then parse the output.

Thanks to all. Set up Devmon and hobbit. Unfortunatelyy, they configured the box for SNMPv3 only. Devmon fails on the query. I've asked them to drop down to v2 for Devmon. Still waiting for an answer from them. Thanks again, Larry
