We have like 145 hosts now and in our NOC room, we need the alarm feature integrated with Nagios, so that when something goes down, it should keep beeping.
How do we do that ?

Do you mean audio alarms or email notifications?

Audio Alarms.
IT already does emails from day 1 and it works great.
But NOC team never comes to know, whats happening, unless they see the email inbox.
So, we need it audio.
I read in a hosting forum, they have done it and they said, nags totally supports it, but did not tell how.

There are some methods, I've not fully played with it however:

This one configures the contact to the execute a
play_siren command to execute. I assume this means the sound is coming directly from the Nagios server.
This one is about using firefox to do it:

I'm not sure to be honest, it's going to require some trial and error on your part. We don't have any official guides.
