Open Source Monitoring and Overlapping IP Space

I'm faced with standing up an open source NMS and am deep into Zenoss Core. I'm evaluating distributed collectors that will be deployed behind a customer NAT/Firewall. Cool, this works. What if the customer IP space overlaps with an existing customer IP space? From a management perspective Zenoss distinguishes devices by IP. So it will refuse to add duplicate addresses. To get multi-realm IP functionality, It would require purchasing a subscription to enterprise license.

So my pickle, do I spend weeks or months hacking the Zenoss sub structure to duplicate that? Do I somehow remap the IPs through site to site VPN at the router? Or do I look for a different open source solution?

Does anyone know of an open source NMS solution that addresses overlapping IP space and can do distributed collectors? I have posted a question on Zabbix forums asking if the distributed monitoring they have will do this. But I hope that someone else has tackled this and succeeded.

envmond(8)						      System Manager's Manual							envmond(8)

NAME
envmond - Environmental Monitoring daemon SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/envmond DESCRIPTION
Environmental Monitoring provides a means of detecting system threshold conditions, that if exceeded, could result in a loss of data or damage to the system itself. Using the envmond daemon, thresholds levels can be checked and corrective action can ensue before any damage occurs. The envmond daemon performs the following: Queries the system for exceeded threshold levels. Broadcasts a message to users warning of high threshold conditions or fan failure, and suggests corrective action. Sends a message to users when a high temperature condition has been resolved. Notifies all users that an orderly shutdown is to be initiated if recovery is not possible. To enable Environmental Monitoring, the envmond daemon must be started during the system boot, but after the eSNMP and Server System MIB agents have started. Before starting Environmental Monitoring, a system check is performed. If the system hardware does not support Envi- ronmental Monitoring, the envmond daemon and Server System MIB are not started. You can customize, start, and stop the envmond daemon using the envconfig utility. For more information, see the envconfig reference page. FILES
