TS - Separate network gathering to same display screen

CURRENT SYSTEM:

1.   BB collector on the FAR network.

2.   LOCAL - BBDISPLAY/collector on the internal network displaying

   both the local and FAR devices in the computer room.

I have a completely separate network (FAR) that has 50 Windows hosts on it.

It is currently running a BB server (1), that is just gathering information about the availability of the hosts.

Pinging the hosts is all that is being done to a server on the FAR network.

That server then sends the information to a BB server with the display on our internal network.

NOTE: We have a need to place windows clients on the server in the near future.

Poking a multi-to-one hole for port 1984 + ping, etc. in the firewall is not recommended for our environment.

Questions:

1.    Can the existing FAR BB server send its info to an Xymon

   server on the internal network? And have these devices displayed on the LOCAL xymon screen?

2.   Is there an Xymon collector that can collect the ping an client

   info from the 50 servers and forward it through a single connection to the LOCAL xymon server and screen?

I cannot retire the existing BB services until I can solve this problem.

Thanks,

Tom Schmitt
