Try cheops.  The comp.os.linux.networking might also know of a few

I'm looking for a program that is the same as ws-watch for windows. In the
program you make icons for all devices that you can ping (hubs, routers
etc.) The program then pings these devices every so often (say 5 minutes)
and when the device doesn't reply it changes colour or posts an alert. In
this specific program you can also traceroute a specific device. If anybody
knows about anything like this can you please let me know. (I use Red Hat
and S.U.S.E.)

Thanks
