Can you go into more depth on this? The questions stated are fairly broad.

Nagios can be used to monitor the host and network, but when it found the problems ,it can't fix it ,also ,we can not use it to manage the host or network,right?
what i want to ask is : are there any methods to make nagios have the ability of management.
thank you for your help!

speerless,

You can use event handlers to correct issues as they're detected.
