Getting status map WITHOUT login

[phantom]

hello,

i am working on a Nagios XI installation for a campus LAN. is it possible to get only the status map page WITHOUT any login? i want to share the map as a public page in an intranet site.

thanks in advance!

There may be other ways of doing that, but here's one way I can think of.

1. Go to: Admin > System Config > System Settings > Backward Compatibility > Allow Insecure Logins = checked > Update Settings

2. Create an admin user (or user nagiosadmin). Click on the username in the upper-right corner, and click on "Generate new insecure ticket" if you don't have one already created. Copy the <insecure login ticket> - you will use it in the next step.

3. Use a URL as the one below:

Code: Select all

http://ip/nagiosxi/includes/components/statusmap/index.php?username=<username>&ticket=<insecure login ticket>

where you substitute <username> and <insecure login ticket> with actual username and ticket, e.g.

Code: Select all

http://192.168.0.100/nagiosxi/includes/components/statusmap/index.php?username=john&ticket=h6LWd4VkrQQjR0foL2D05SuTWRBuvT76Y8jbrevVkFurVMSX4LX8EL0QDRkoKKNZ

Note: Users need to be authorized to see the data on the map, so you will have to use an admin user in order to make sure all data will be visible.
