Building a bandwidth management system

Hi,

Im in my final year of an honours degree entitled software development and computer networking. For my final year project I have decided to implement a bandwidth management system for a small network.

The plan would be to develop something to run on a server on the network, implemented in php and having a web based ui for administration. Im a bit behind at the moment due to assignments in other subjects, its all just getting on top of me a bit.

Looking for a bit of guidance on using snmp to implement it and how I would actually do this with php. I need to hand up a 5000 - 10000 word research document in two weeks and dont have much done as i said. Im just all over the place atm tbh and dont know where to start.

Any advice much appreciated.

Thanks,

Well I have done some research and wondering now if it is possible to implement snmp with php.

I want to have a server set up as the NMS(network management system). I would like to implement this in php and be able to access it via the web.

Is this possible??

 

iv done some more research and iv been told that it is easier to implement snmp with perl.

Any advice on this?
