Nagios Support Forum

Hi Team,
I have installed the Nagios XI & need to configure NRPE commands.
But we need to configure it with disabling SSL. Since our monitoring servers are running without SSL. Please let me know the procedure.
Thank you
Mahesh

When you go through the NRPE wizard, on Step 2 there is an option to enable or disable SSL encryption. Just set this to disabled, and away you go.

Edit:
Also, welcome to the forums!

Yes, it found.
Is it effecting for all the services which is configured under that host?

It will only set it for the services that get setup when you are running the wizard. If you have existing checks that need to not be run over SSL, we will have to take a look at the check commands for those and alter the commands to not use SSL.

Can i get a sample command?
When i create a service for existing host, check command need to select from drop down list. So we can't edit to disable SSL.

Also let me know, is there an option in Nagios XI to share pop up alarms to another system via SNMP or any other method.

Okay, so the default check_nrpe command that comes with Nagios XI looks like this, If you don't have any servers that use SSL, you can modify the existing command to be this, and that should make all existing, and future NRPE checks not use SSL.

Another thing to note is that you don't have to manually create commands and services for existing hosts. You can run wizards against an existing host. Most wizards will ask for the IP address first, and then in the second step it will ask for the hostname. The hostname is what Nagios uses to group up services in the Services Status page.

Also let me know, is there an option in Nagios XI to share pop up alarms to another system via SNMP or any other method.

Can you please send me a update for above question?

Nagios XI does have an Outbound Check Transfer section, but it is meant to send to NRDP or NSCA.

I stand corrected. We do have an SNMP Trap Sender built into Nagios XI.
