Joking aside, that is exactly the page I was looking at when the email came in!

Now you know of one person looking into it at the moment; although like yourself I am totally new to this. It's *supposed* to be simple, easy, etc; but I feel confident I'll feel dumber than when I'm started.

(at the moment - if Hobbit doesn't monitor it, we don't deploy it; and we haven't had to say "No" yet; so I think your pretty close to your ambitions!!)

Cheers.

Not that I know of.

It's a technology that I know absolutely nothing about - what protocols are involved, how you communicate with the devices, what needs to be up and running, how you monitor availability etc.

This looks like a good place to start: http://www.voip-info.org/tiki-index.php?page=voip-info.org

I haven't seen it mentioned yet, and it's something I will need to consider in the not too distant future (as I'm sure many others will too)!

I expect to get a call about it one day, so I am hoping Hobbit will have a place monitoring this too.

The ambition (for me) certainly is to have Hobbit be able to monitor all of your IT systems. Yeah, I know that's pretty ambitious, but it never hurts to set high goals :-)
