adding multiple switches in switch.cfg

[bsudhakar81]

can anyone help me with example format for adding multiple switches in switch.cfg file. By default it is monitoring only single switch.

Hi @bsudhakar81,

Below is a link to the Nagios Core documentation for monitoring routers and switches as well as the documentation for creating Nagios Core objects.

After creating the additional host/service definitions in switch.cfg, you'll need to re-start the nagios process.

Nagios Core: Monitoring Routers and Switches
Nagios Core: Object Definitions

Hopefully, that will help get you started, and let me know if you have any specific questions.

am able to do it by adding entries in switch.cfg.

Yes. That will be ok. Remember to restart nagios after making any changes,
