Nagios Support Forum

Hi Team,

OS version : Centos 8
Nagios XI version: 5.7.1

We want to monitor SSL certificate for our routers. Below is the information:

this is our config
ip http access-class 10
ip http secure-server
ip http secure-trustpoint cginfra-CA

We have to monitor the certificate name on router cginfra-CA

certificate name "cginfra-CA"

Router IP: 10.1.210.248

[root@HO1-NAGIOSXI libexec]# ./check_http --version
check_http v2.3.3 (nagios-plugins 2.3.3)

It is working fine when we try to monitor our Nagios certificate.

[root@HO1-NAGIOSXI libexec]# /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_http -I 10.1.0.220 -p 443 -C 10
SSL OK - Certificate '10.1.0.220' will expire in 3619 days on 2030-06-12 13:50 +0400/+04.
[root@HO1-NAGIOSXI libexec]#

When we are trying to monitor SSL certificate for router, we are getting below error:

[root@HO1-NAGIOSXI libexec]# /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_http -I 10.1.210.248 -p 443 -C 10
CRITICAL - Cannot make SSL connection.

[root@HO1-NAGIOSXI libexec]#

I tried to google about this error and found few Nagios Topics as well, but I could not see any of them resolved.

Please help us on the same.

Can you show what happens when you add --sni

SSL WARNING - Certificate '*<FOO>.com' expires in 9 day(s) (2020-07-24 07:00 -0500/CDT).

that is your solution, you can add the --sni to the arguments.

Some newer servers require this setting

Hello,

Still getting the same error:

[root@HO1-NAGIOSXI libexec]# /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_http -H 10.1.210.248 -p 443 -C 10 --sni
CRITICAL - Cannot make SSL connection.

I thought you said you got this?

If I am using "I" for providing IP address of router, then getting below error:

[root@HO1-NAGIOSXI libexec]# /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_http -I 10.1.210.248 -p 443 -C 10 --sni

If I am using "H" as per above output, I am getting below error:

[root@HO1-NAGIOSXI libexec]# /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_http -H 10.1.210.248 -p 443 -C 10 --sni

[root@HO1-NAGIOSXI libexec]#


Note: --sni is not working for me.

Sorry, I didn't notice that it wasn't you that posted that response..

What is the hostname that this certificate is for?

Also, what do you get when running the following?:

Hello,

Below is the hostname for 10.1.210.248 :
AE-HO1-DMVPN-GW

Below is the output of the command u gave:
[root@HO1-NAGIOSXI libexec]# curl -vvv "https://10.1.210.248"

I'd like you to try a couple different commands ad it appears your router doesn't support the SSL version it is trying
