Linux Distribution and version? CentOS 6.6
32 or 64bit? 64 bit
VMware Image or Manual Install of XI? VMware Image
Are there special configurations on your system, ie; is Gnome installed? Are you using a proxy? Are you using SSL? Using SSL

I have SSL working with the program URL that is set to a name that resolves to an internal IP address (I used configuring SSL for Nagios XI to do this). I have a second URL that I want to set to resolve to an external IP on the firewall and redirect to the NagiosXI server for external access, however, I want to use an additional SSL cert that I have for the second URL.

So basically:
Program URL - SSL - https://nagiosUrl/nagiosxi
External URL - SSL - https://nagiosUrlExt/nagiosxi

Do I set this up in the external URL section under Admin - Manage System Config? And it so that can't be the only step.

Update:

So, we set up an external IP to tie to the ExtUrl and it forwards internally and therefore, I can access the Nagios instance from external. Now I just need to know the steps for getting SSL to work. Right now I get a hostname mismatch for the SSL.

Program URL - SSL - https://nagiosUrl/nagiosxi
External URL - SSL - https://nagiosUrlExt/nagiosxi

Do I:

1. Modify my SSL certificate request to include nagiosUrl and nagiosUrlExt

or

2. Load an additional SSL cert for nagiosUrlEx, and if so, how do I load an SSL cert for a secondary, external URL?

Are you using a self-signed certificate, one signed by your local certificate authority, or one signed by a recognized certificate authority?

Thank you for your reply. I've finally figured out what I needed to do. My problem was solved by ordering an SSL certificate with a SAN for the other name. This worked for me.

Great to hear! Are we good to mark this thread as resolved then?

You could also protect your external available Nagios XI with Apache config directives:

Code: Select all

<Directory "/usr/local/nagiosxi/html">
                Options None
                AllowOverride None
                Order deny,allow
                Deny from all
                Allow from 79.54.38.229 127.0.0.1 ::1 212.71.234.84 2a01:75e0::f03c:933:fe18:6141 fe80::2232:09e4:fe18:674c
                Require all granted
                Redirect permanent / https://outsideit.net/
</Directory>
