Nagios XI Monitoring Cisco Switch

Hi,
I am new to NagiosXI and in the midst of evaluating the product. I am interested with monitoring a cisco switch using nagios to see the network bandwidth.
I am using the fresh installation provided by Nagios and try to monitor one of my Cisco Switch.
I have configure my switch to enable snmp v1. And when I try to configure using the Network Switch / Router Monitoring Wizard, I am getting error after finishing the wizard saying Configuration verification failed.
May I know if there are any pre-requisite that needs to be done for this?
Thanks,
Rudy

Lets see what is failing. Go to --> Configure --> Core Config Manager (CCM) --> Tools --> Write Config Files. Click "Write" and then "Verify". Post the results of these two buttons in code wraps.

Check your configuration file(s) to ensure that they contain valid
directives and data defintions. If you are upgrading from a previous
version of Nagios, you should be aware that some variables/definitions
may have been removed or modified in this version. Make sure to read
the HTML documentation regarding the config files, as well as the
'Whats New' section to find out what has changed.

Error: Invalid max_check_attempts value for host 'Fortigate Firewall'
What do you have defined in the Fotigate Firewall host for max_check_attempts? This will need to be changed to a valid value and then you should be able to apply config.
