I'm in a NOC that is bandwidth sparse to some sites - a lot of satellite links (128-384k.)
We use Openview. We get at lot of false alarms for 'Node Down', when the alert should read 'bandwidth impaired'. The easily choked 128k link reaches capacity and dumps the low priority traffic. Naturally, the ICMP stuff like ping goes first.
The IBM equivilant to Openview is Tivoli Netview.
