Nagios URL

Post by pireland »

Hi

Is there a way to configure Nagios XI URL using a FQDN rather than an Ip Address ?

Yes. Set it in admin --> manage system config --> program url.

Does it time out? Can you ping the XI server with the fqdn?

Run the following from a terminal on your workstation (xterm/cmd):

Code: Select all

nslookup <fqdn of nagios server>
Post the output.
