Homelab network mapper / monitor (alien.top)

Peeps, I am looking for a graphical network mapper that will tell me some vitals on some of my devices and network. ( docker image preferred, but can do whatever)

Looking for:

DNS / DHCP performance... are there some home devices that are not getting timely resolution to DNS /DHCP handouts.

Are there some clients (Wired / Wireless) that are chatty for no real reason.

I have a combo virtual / container client as well as my usual home bound devices. (TVs / Phones)

Thinking that I may need to VLAN or segment my network to split out traffic a little bit.. thinking I'm swamping my home LAN with Homelab devices and a mapping / utilization tool would be great!

Thanks for any help!

Checkmk. If Windows/Linux(most flavors)/MacOS, you can install a small agent that gathers all kinds of data, that you can extend with all sorts of plug-ins (even create your own in Python, easy). Very flexible, and good tutorials/videos/docs on their site. The RAW edition is more than enough.
