Nagios monitoring

Post by spiderpig »

Hi,

I am looking for a solution for monitoring a devices in a restricted network, and the only traffic allowed should be the monitoring out traffic from nagios.
which port should I look for from the nagios server? any other ideas?

How are you going to monitor the devices in the remote network? What types of devices / servers are they? Do they have agents installed?

It's agentsless, we only use SNMP and the nagios server is only used inside this remote network. But now we want to have the output off all warnings, critical e.g. like Nagstatmon. without opening communication in the remote network only out.
hope you understand what I mean :)

SNMP will use port 161/162 so I believe that's all you will need to allow through the firewall.

I'm unsure what you're asking here. Could you rephrase it?
