Monitoring Diffrent sites with one Nagios-xi

[sudhirprannath]

Nagios-XI I want to Monitor Devices located in different VPC in AWS, two data centers and some off site offices, what is the best practice to monitor these devices.-
My Nagios-xi Enterprise server is hosted in one of the AWS’s VPC.
Do I need a VPN connection between hosted VPC and remote sites?
I would like to avoid creating VPNs for each site
How Nagios Plug-in, install on windows and UNIX communicated with Enterprise server.

What about password security?

You will probably want to use something like NRPE to act as a proxy between your environments:

Then you would use XI to funnel all the checks through NRPE. As for security, NRPE does support encryption but a VPN would of course be much more secure.
