Query on the backend of Nagios URL

[nagiosadminAD]

We have SSL configured on our Load balancer from AWS ACM, is it still required to configure SSL on nagios server?

Right now your load balancer is forwarding the requests to https://alb-nagios-xi-1627099631.en-cen ... /nagiosxi/

If the network guy can change the load balancer to forward requests to http://alb-nagios-xi-1627099631.en-cent ... /nagiosxi/ you wouldn't have to change anything on the nagios server. You should consult your
network/load balancer guy, he may have a requirement to forward it to an https:// url

Thanks

We have created two target groups for the Nagios ports 5666 and 5667 on AWS console and mapped one of them to the 443 traffic port.

So requests landing on 443, will be forwarded to one of the nagios ports on the instance.

This is the setup we have done on AWS side. We even have same kind of setup for nagios log monitoring url which is working fine.

The query here is does the new nagios url (with ALB DNS name) needs to be updated anywer inside the nagios server on any config files?

Hi,

I see you are using ports 5666 and 5667, so I am guessing you are using the
load balancer to redirect NRPE communications, rather than client web browser
requests. Is this the case?

Thanks
