Monitoring the Response time of the URL.

Post by RIDS_I2MP »

Hi Team,

We want to monitor the response time of an URL. URL is a login page when we enter the credentials if the URL do not respond i.e. if we are not able to login within some specified time (20 seconds) then the alert should be send.

Above is our requirement, kindly suggest whether it can be achieved?
Thanks & Regards,
I2MP Team.

There are multiple options available depending on how the website functions. check_http can certainly monitor page load times with ease, but isn't very good for operations like testing logins.

A good cover-all would be to write a Selenium test case for your page. Options that are more light-weight include WebInject (using the "Web Transaction" wizard from Nagios XI), or a standard curl call with a script that checks the output.

Here's official documentation on integrating Selenium with Nagios XI:
