NeDi is an open source software tool which discovers, maps, and inventories network devices and tracks connected end-nodes. It contains a number of features in a GUI for managing enterprise networks. For example: MAC address mapping/tracking, traffic and error graphing, uptime monitoring, correlating collected syslog and trapping messages with customizable notifications, drawing network maps, extensive reporting features such as device software, PoE usage, disabled interfaces, link errors, switch usage and many more. Its modular architecture allows for integration with other tools. For example, Cacti graphs can be created purely based on discovered information. Due to NeDi's versatility, things like printer resources can be monitored as well.[2][3]
History
Development started in 2001 at the Paul Scherrer Institute by Remo Rickli. It was released to the public under the GPLv2 in 2003. Over the next decade, NeDi grew up to become a reasonable network management suite with the help of its community and partners.
In 2014 Remo Rickli founded NeDi Consulting, providing commercial support and development around NeDi. Since then, a major update is released every year (e.g. 1.5 in 2015).
