Monitoring appliances

[ancovington]

Is it possible to monitor our firewall appliances and web filtering appliance Palo Alto?

[tmcdonald]

That a bit of a vague question, but yes it is *possible*. Whether or not a plugin specifically tailored to your device exists, however, I do not know.

[ancovington]

Because there isn't a plugin specifically for our palo alto device, will using snmp suffice?

[slansing]

We can do some looking around, what is the exact device? Besides "Palo Alto" It must have a model or series number of some sort. As long as it can either send SNMP traps, or has a snmp daemon on the device you should be able to check it with SNMP just fine.

This can be closed. The admin for that device no longer wants Nagios to monitor it.
