Pygal provides many more customizable features and graphing capabilities for the data you collect from more basic network monitoring tools such as SNMP. We demonstrated a simple line graph and pie graphs here. You can find more information about the project here:

• Pygal GitHub project page: https://github.com/Kozea/pygal

In the next section, we will continue with the SNMP theme of network monitoring but with a fully featured network monitoring system called Cacti.
