Introduction

LibreNMS is an autodiscovering PHP/MySQL/SNMP based network monitoring which includes support for a wide range of network hardware and operating systems including Cisco, Linux, FreeBSD, Juniper, Brocade, Foundry, HP and many more.

LibreNMS is a community-based fork of the last GPL-licensed version of Observium http://observium.org/. LibreNMS intends to be a viable network monitoring project and community that:

  • encourages contribution,
  • focuses on the needs of its users, and
  • offers a welcoming, friendly environment for everyone.

The Debian Social Contract http://www.debian.org/social_contract will be the basis of our priority system, and mutual respect the basis of our behaviour towards others.
