Make SQL Monitor scale to more machines and networks
CONTEXT: We want to monitor many different servers in different domains and locations
PROBLEM: Network configuration for cross-domain monitoring can be challenging, and SQL Monior can slow down if many servers are being mointored
EXAMPLE SOLUTIONS:
• Create a central web interface that can access multiple Base monitors
• Provide an optional agent that can be deployed for easier network configuration
• Make a single installation of SQL Monitor scale to a larger number of servers, and make network configuration easier

We have multiple servers in different domains. At present there is no trust between the domains and we have a seperate login for each domain. Each domain also has its own IP address range and there may be 2 or more firewalls between the servers. Is an optional agent based approach feasable where all the work happens locally & say XML is punted back & forth over a particular port?
