Nagios is a premium offering. They have some open source components, but the software model is absolutely not built around the spirit of GPL.
Zabbix is the obvious alternative in my mind, and it is AGPLv3, so absolutely in the same spirit as the LibreNMS license. It’s a slightly different tool though, and less network-specific. Having used both, I prefer LibreNMS for specifically network monitoring, it’s laid out to cater more to an ISP-type entity running it, and I like that. Zabbix still gets my wholehearted stamp of approval though.
