Do you want to pay for a product, or do it for minimal cost?
If you want to pay for something, then Solar Winds Orion NPM is a good product to do what you want - you can plug in the modules you want or need to the main package and make it do what you want. Of course, you can use Cisco's Data Center Network Manager or Prime LAN management solution.
If you want to do it for free, you can run a combination of Cacti and Nagios (open source, run on Linux), or any of a dozen other open source solutions in combination to get you what you want.
Personally, I use Cacti for interface/bandwidth monitoring, and Nagios for alerting (router up/down, link failures etc), along with some custom written scripts to copy configuration backups to a central location - but that needs a fair amount of work to setup.
Solar Winds Orion NPM (www.solarwinds.com) does everything you want, but it costs quite a bit - I have no idea what the Cisco solutions cost. The cost of installing a Linux server and the open source products comes down to hardware and time/expertiese.
Cheers.
