We would need to know the Make and Model number of the Network Device so we can help out on setting up some commands to monitor CPU and RAM.
Can you provide more details for monitoring SSH and VPN?
Are looking to monitor if a VPN tunnel is up on the device?
Are you looking to see if SSH is available on the device or that someone is logged in to the device?
Thanks

I found this plugin that you could use to get the load from the Cisco ASA'S
https://github.com/mmornati/puppet-nagi ... mp_load.pl
An example for running the plugin

Code: Select all

./check_snmp_load_new.pl -H xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx -C public -w 10,10,10 -c 20,20,20 --type=c5500 -f
I found this plugin that you could use to get the memory usage from the Cisco ASA'S

I then found this plugin for checking the status of a VPN tunnel but I do not have the ability to test it.

To upload the plugins, you can follow this guide.
https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nag ... ios-XI.pdf

There is a SSH Login wizard you can use to to verify that you can login to the ASA's or if you just want to verify that the port is open, you can use the TCP/UDP Port Wizard.

Any questions, let us know.
