Hi @lgaddam,

We've got a couple of built-in wizards for monitoring both Active Directory and Printers in Nagios XI. The AD Wizard is based on the check_ldap plugin to let you know if you service is up or not. Here's the setup guide for the wizard,

Monitoring Active Directory with LDAP

For more additional AD checks, please take a look an the Nagios Exchange in the Windows category for community developed plugins to suit your requirements.

For example, here's a plugin for AD replication check.

Additionally, there are more plugins available for specific printers, you'll find those on the following page:
