Yes, nexsm shows a live view of the status of your devices, sing  
different colored backgrounds to indicate device/service status. There  
are a couple of screen shots available at http://www.nagiosexchange.org/cgi-bin/jump.cgi?ID=2137&view=File1;d=1 
  and http://www.nagiosexchange.org/cgi-bin/jump.cgi?ID=2137&view=File2;d=1 
  In the first one, the ssh host in the lan group has a problem - note  
the red text and background. When I was using it, I had all the host  
icons be 1-pixel dots, with a significantly larger dot as a background  
image, so basically all you saw for each host was a red (critical)  
yellow (warning/unreachable/etc) or green (OK) dot. For our purposes,  
I found this approach made more sense than trying to fit a bunch of  
large icons onto the screen.
