Nagios is using your apache installation.
You should change the Apache config for that.

Do you mean
http://localhost:8081 or did you intend on
http://localhost/8081?
What OS are you running? Is there a specific reason you'd like to change the port?

I believe there are 3 places you will need to change (this is for a RHEL box - the directories may be somewhat different on Ubuntu) -
File - /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
Look for Listen 80 change to Listen 8081
File - /usr/local/nagiosxi/html/config.inc.php
Look for $cfg['port_number'] = 80; change to $cfg['port_number'] = 8081;
Admin > System Config > Manage System Config
- Change Program URL and External URL (if you have it set) to include the port.
