I block P2P on my network and suddenly am getting alerts from my IPS about the Nagios XI server, any ideas?

Nagios doesn't do anything with the P2P protocol, and certainly not eDonkey. I would take a look at your security logs, sounds like your server might be getting utilized for torrenting. tcpdump and ps are your friends here.
