Nagios Support Forum

Hi Team,

Could you please give me an overview to monitor below from Nagios XI, I just want to know the possibilities.

1. How to monitor our web sites and external facing applications e.g. service now
2. VPN connectivity (pulse secure and Forti client)
3. ISP (WAN links) availability
4. Monitor AD replication
5. WIFI performance
6. TELNET in the warehouses

Thanks for your support!!

Nagios can monitor anything that has a plugin written for it. Sometimes we'll have some default plugins you can use and other times you may need to search to find something useful.

I would initially suggest checking out the default wizards in XI:

For monitoring websites I would recommend checking out the website wizards - https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nag ... ios-XI.pdf.

The SNMP wizards can be great since a lot of devices will use SNMP:

And the NCPA software can be used to do a lot of things like check services, Windows counters, system stats, etc...

If there doesn't seem to be a wizard that will work for you can try searching the exchange:

https://exchange.nagios.org

Another place to search would be github or simply searching for "<device or software name> nagios" with your favorite search engine may return a plugin that will work for you.

and finally, there's always the option to write a custom plugin:
