IPsec monitoring in NagiosXI, cannot figure it out
Posted: Fri Aug 11, 2017 3:26 pm
I am new to Nagios and pretty much the whole SNMP with my 2 years networking experience. I have 5 Sonicwalls that each has 3-6 IPsecs to pfSense.
I can't figure out how to add IPsec monitoring to a host. I watched some videos/read forums with all kind of info all over and in the end, I am confused even more.
I already established SNMP through the wizard with 1 Sonicwall it shows port traffic but says host is down (i guess I have to enable wan ping on Sonicwall?). I understood that each service has OID that you had to add (I don't understand where) in order to monitor it but I can not even find OID for IPsec/VPN in the first place.
One thing that no one really talked about is SNMP during my education, all I knew is port 161...wish I would foresee the future and get prepared better.
