NOCtools is a mixed bag of tools and utilities that are useful for NOC engineers. This project originally started out as a way to highlight and utilise our OSS_SNMP library (a PHP SNMP library for people who hate SNMP).
It since grew into a way to graphically present information on network topology that is normally difficult and cumbersome to do by logging into individual devices. Such information includes a discovered L2 topology by CDP, using this to present rapid-PVST port roles and so forth.
NOCtools is written in PHP using the Zend Framework (V1.x) as the application controller and using Smarty as the templating engine. There is no real reliance on external libraries besides both of these and OSS_SNMP (which requires some of the new features of PHP 5.4). The frontend is thanks to Twitter Bootstrap.
NOCtools is open source software which is hosted on GitHub. You can fork us, follow us, raise tickets and - hopefully - raise some pull requests with new tools and features!
