Hi Team,

We r planning to use Backend API URL with different IP address rather than IP of Nagios XI Server..

Can u please suggest us how to change the IP Address in Backend API URL....

Thanks in Advance

Could you explain your requirements more clearly? The backend API is used to query information and pages from the XI server, so naturally, you will have to use an IP that belongs to the XI server (or at least port forwards, etc).

HI Team,

Thanks for ur reply... Is there any option to redirect another IP exclusively for BAckend API...?

What is the use case for this? A clustered environment? The backend is used by the frontend, both use php, and must reside on the same Nagios XI server. Could you give us a description of the scenario this pertains to?

Hi Team,

Actually, we are planning to use frontend server by keeping Nagios XI Server backend.. So, i need to integrate the API's by providing the different IP Address...

Please suggest on this scenario....

Thanks

Just to further clarify, you are trying to separate to the web ui fronend from the backend? i.e. run them on different apache servers?

HI Team,

I cannot, as I am unsure what you are trying to accomplish. The frontend and backend are both served from the same set of php scripts. Separating these is most likely not possible. Please be explicit when explaining what you are trying to accomplish . . .
