  1. NAV A comprehencive network management tool Vidar Faltinsen NTNU, Trondheim, Norway

  2. The university network • 17000 machines connected, 3500 student dormitories • gigabit MAN across the city • 1 Gbps Internet access, peak load of 500 Mbps • 30 routers, 1400 switches, 150 WLAN access points UNINETT AS 224 NTNU: AS 64514 Kalvskinnet Øya Sentrum Oslo network operations • staff of 8 persons • many students Trd HB ET SB ntnu-gw2 ntnu-gw Gløshaugen RFB Kjemi Tyholt Moholt SINTEF AS 64512 Dragvoll Lade

  3. Why develop NAV? • Looked at several commercial NMS in 1998 • Focus on monitoring (not configuration) • Wanted something simple, yet powerful • Implemented a basic system in 1999 • Availability monitor understanding topology • Traffic statistics based on MRTG • Evolved from there...

  4. NAV status - August 2003 Development • 4 years of development: 1999 -2003. • 6 ”man years” of work, 20 persons involved. • 40000 lines of code. Perl, php, java, postgresql. Distribution • Development projects with funding from UNINETT • Freely available to UNINETT members Installations • Now running at 4 universities and 10 colleges in Norway.
