Hi
@vmesquita,
In regards to:
Which client should we use?
You have many options:
1.NSClient
2.NCPA
3.WMI
4.SNMP
NOTE: NSClient and NCPA give you the liberty to implement custom checks unlike in SNMP and WMI.
For information on installing and configuring the clients above, please follow the steps below:
Step 1: On your Nagios XI web UI, go to
Help >>
Administartor Guide

Step 2:On the
Administartor Guide page, scrolldown and select
Monitoring Windows

Step 3: You are now the page containing all the information including kb articles on monitoring windows in Nagios XI.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Hi Kyang,
We installed using a silent install and it's working. Thanks for the help!
