The only commercial solution that comes close to what we need as an enterprise is the product suite from SolarWinds, but its expensive when your talking 8-12,000 IP enabled devices.

I care about availaility, latency, loss, jitter, and trap handling for interface up/down, loss of power, etc. Sensible behavior in situations where
