Application of Web Server Based Network Monitoring System Using Cacti And The Dude Server at Cokroaminoto University Server Palopo

Abstract

This study aims to create a network monitoring system that can make it easier for network administrators to check the existing network conditions. This research was conducted in the student information system server room of the University of Cokroaminoto Palopo. This type of research is Research and Development (R&D) which develops existing systems by adding a monitoring system so that data traffic can be handled properly and quickly and records every data traffic that passes on the existing network. This system makes it easier for network administrators where The dude server as a network monitoring application displays existing network conditions into network maps. If the device on the network is in normal condition, the device will be green, while if it is off, it will be red so that it is easy to monitor and provide notification if the network is unstable or disconnected with telegram bot media as a notification quickly so that the network administrator will immediately know if there is a problem on the network. Combined with the cacti application as an application that can record data flows and display it in graph form, it makes it easier for network administrators to troubleshoot and report problems on the network
