Add support to monitor Raspberry Pi stations on the network #73

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Need a way to monitor the network status of each of the 18 rPi stations and the 
Master Server on the network. Maybe this should be written in Python. Perhaps 
it should have large red/green indicators for status and a pretty graphic 
showing ping times. Thoughts?

Silly idea.  :-)

Pushed NetStatusMonitor.py to the brata.station repository.

Description:  Provides a status display window to monitor the network status of
              a group of machines.  Specifically, this is tailored to monitor
              the set of Raspberry Pi-based competition stations for the 2015
              Harris High School Design Challenge.  It shows a box for each
              station, displayed green if the station is responding to pings,
              otherwise red.

              The app uses TkInter to make the GUI.
              The app will probably need minor tweaks to run in Windows.

              The window is somewhat resizable.
              Etherape can also be run alongside this, with appropriate settings,
              to provide an entertaining dynamic display of the network activity.

              The IP addresses of the machines to be scanned are hard-coded in
              an array.

      Usage:  python NetStatusMonitor.py
