Nagios Support Forum

Good morning
First of all I would like to present myself I'm a network engineer in his last year and I'm doing this year my diploma thesis and they ask me to concept and Implement a network monitoring solution with an Open Source networking system
there is a lot of equipments , the standard IT equipment use snmp and there is a specific equipment which use the corba interface to forward alarms to the actual monitoring tool so I'm doing a lot of researches about plugins to monitor a cellular network using North bound interface ( corba ) and I didn't find nothing , so can you help me if there is any excisting plugin which make me monitoring a cellular network using NBI ( corba ) so i can edit it to my needs

Have you searched the Exchange site for any plugins that would work for your needs?
https://exchange.nagios.org/

i would run a snmpwalk against your corba devices, figure out the applicable OID/MIB's you want to monitor, and then create scripts around it - if you can't find anything existing.

The only plugin I could find that is somewhat using CORBA is https://exchange.nagios.org/directory/P ... no/details

You may want to contact the author to see if they have any insight.

Thanks so much for reply
dwhitfield : i send him a message but he dosen t reply , im waiting again
tgriep : yes i did a research i only find the check domino
tacolover101 : i fix a meeting with them and i try to understand exactly what is required from me and they say that they want from me to find an open source solution which will be an alternative to the commercial solution Netcool, so this system must be able to collect information either directly from the network elements ( Standards equipment using SNMP ) and different EMS ( U2000/NetAct) which means that it should support the NBIs corba , these 2 EMS support nbi snmp , when i ask them why i dont collect those alarms using the NBI snmp , they say to me that they are note sure if nbi snmp forword all the alarms like the nbi corba i mean logical alarms

it will be really helpfull for me to give the point of depart... , this diploma thesis ends in september

I doubt these are going to be of much use, but both https://github.com/gavincarr/nagios-of-plugins and https://github.com/chrisgilbert/Nagios-Passive-Agent reference CORBA.

There is a JMX interface to CORBA, so that may be of some use, but ultimately, it looks like you'll need to write something.
