Differences between Nagios

Post by thom_crus0123 »

I'm a bit confused on which product should i be using. May I know what is the difference of Nagios XI, Nagios Fusion, Nagios Incident Manager, Nagios Network Analyzer and Nagios Core? All I want is to monitor my solaris and linux nodes. Which one should i use? Thank you so much...

Nagios Core is the free command-line product that can be used to monitor hosts and services, and Nagios XI is a web frontend that can be used to configure the hosts/services, show graphs of utilization, send reports, and a lot more. Nagios XI is a paid solution with a free 60-day trial (fully-featured) and is otherwise free if you are only monitoring up to 7 hosts.

Nagios Fusion is used to manage multiple Nagios XI machine, Nagios Network Analyzer is useful for getting IP-specific network traffic information, and Nagios Incident Manager is a ticketing system for handling issues detected by Nagios. Both NNA and IM integrate very well with Nagios XI.
