| - | ====== What is NAV? ====== | + | ====== Welcome to the NAV wiki! ===== |
| - | {{navlogo48.png |(NAV logo)}} **Network Administration Visualized** is an advanced software suite to monitor large computer networks. It automatically discovers network topology, monitors network load and outages, and can send alerts on network events by e-mail and SMS, allowing for flexible configuration of alert profiles. | + | |
| - | Development of **NAV** started in 1999 at the [[http://www.ntnu.no|Norwegian University of Science and Technology]] (NTNU). It originated as a collection of scripts used internally at NTNU's ITEA Network group. In 2001 [[http://www.uninett.no|UNINETT]] became interested in its development. In 2006 the development of NAV was moved from NTNU to UNINETT. NAV is used at nearly all universities and university colleges in Norway and [[navusers|many places elsewhere]]. | + | This Wiki contains information about the open source NMS Network Administration Visualized. For the latest official documentation, please see https://nav.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ . Some of the older documentation may still be in the process of being moved from the Wiki to the official documentation. |
