Currently I can monitor my firewalls ports status, CPU and Ram usage and some other things that I can get through SNMP.
Is it possible to monitor a firewall bandwidth only with Nagios, through SNMP? (I really do not want to install Cacti or MRTG

Re: Monitor Firewall Bandwidth
It depends if your firewall has OIDS to do so with "via passive SNMP traps," or to run active SNMP get requests against. Do you know if it can be checked for this? Your manual should tell you.

Thanks for the suggestion!
O can get some information via MIB Browser, but I dont know how to use SNMP Traps.
Anyway, I will take a look and let you know.
