Monitoring Inside ACI

I'm curious if anyone monitors an ACI environment with an external tool, and if so, what tool that is. It Has Been Decided that we will move to ACI, but there are a bunch of unanswered questions I'm trying to get in front of.

We currently do a fair bit of port-level and IP SLA monitoring through PRTG so that we can alert on various marginalities. Unfortunately, it doesn't appear that PRTG and ACI talk well enough to get IP SLA information out via SNMP. I expect that we could probably cobble together a custom solution, but this might be the last nail in our PRTG coffin, and I'd rather move to a new system now rather than later.

Specifically, physical and logical port status, errors/drops and IP SLA status, RTT, and errors/drops.
