A whole<br \/>\ndiscipline of network and systems management has evolved to deal with this<br \/>\nproblem, resulting in many software platforms both free and proprietary aiming<br \/>\nto solve it.  One of these, OpenNMS (Open Network Management System), brings a<br \/>\n100% free and Open Source software approach with massive scalability as its key<br \/>\noperational goal.  This talk will present a gentle introduction to network<br \/>\nmanagement concepts along with a tour of OpenNMS&#8217; architecture and, provided the<br \/>\nstars align, a live demo!<\/p>\n<p>Bio:<br \/>\n&#8212; Jeff Gehlbach discovered Linux in 1994 when a friend shared with him a box<br \/>\nof floppies containing Slackware 2.3, and has been hooked ever since.  He has<br \/>\nsubsequently worked as a network engineer, Solaris and Linux systems admin,<br \/>\nnetwork management consultant, and network management software developer<br \/>\namong others.  Today he pays the bills by helping organizations manage their<br \/>\nnetworks and systems using free software including OpenNMS.<\/p>\n<p>=============<br \/>\nOur ALE Central meetings are usually held at Emory<br \/>\nLaw School in the Gambrel Hall lecture room 1C.<br \/>\nOur meeting time frame is 7:30pm to ~9:30pm<br \/>\nDirections to Emory Law School can be found at<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/mail.ale.org\/?page_id=2\">http:\/\/ale.org\/?page_id=2<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PLEASE NOTE DATE, ROOM AND PARKING!
