Abstract :
The Network Event Recording Device is an automated, real-time system for monitoring and detecting network anomalies, as well as providing timely notification to network managers of significant network events. The NERD system allows for continuous monitoring of system and security logs, easily configurable notification options and a central, secure data collection point for distributed system logs
