Stunnel monitoring

Hello,
I just started using the nagios.
I have a scenario where in I need to monitor the stunnel service on the remote hosts.Is there any plugin that can be used?I searched a lot but could not find it?
Also could I use the simple telnet to the port on which stunnel is accepting the connections on the remote host,something like:
Remote Host:
telnet localhost 1960
where 1960 is the port configured in the stunnel config to accept the connections.

On stunnel server
telnet localhost 11500
where 11500 is the port configured in the stunnel config to accept the connections on the stunnel server.

will this logic work?

You can use the check_tcp plugin that is part if the base nagios plugins package to check if a port is alive or not, that sounds like it will do what you want.
