Nagios Support Forum

Hi,

I have installed Nagios® Core™ 4.2.1. I want to monitor switches and routers. But when i am using /usr/local/nagios/bin/nagios -v /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg , its showing error (Could not register service (config file '/usr/local/nagios/etc/objects/switch.cfg', starting on line 64)
Error processing object config files!)

here my switch.cfg file.

Your host object is not enabled.

Change this:
register 0
To this:
register 1
