Passive Monitoring

[Musthaq Hassan]

Hi Team,

We are planning to use NRDP client for Passive Monitoring. We are looking for details on list of supported operating system with its minimum & maximum release version on Windows and Linux.

We have RHEL version starting with 6.x
Windows we have 2012

Could you please help with details?

Thank you,

Hello @Musthaq

Thanks for reaching out, NRDP is being phased out and is replaced with NCPA.

Please check out the following:

• https://www.nagios.org/ncpa/
• https://www.nagios.org/ncpa/help/2.2/passive.html

Please let us know if you have further questions.

Thanks,
Perry

Thanks for your reply, I can see supported OS version for NCPA 2.3.1 as below,

Windows Server 2008+
RHEL 7.x & 8.x

AIX 7.x supported with NCPA Version 2.2.1

If customer wants to go with nrdp for passive monitoring, whether it will support RHEL 6.x, 7.x & Wndows Server 2012?

Hello @Musthaq

First, off correction, I should have stated that NRPE is on the way out *(or getting phasing out). NRPD is not getting phased out to correct my previous post.

You are correct that it will support RHEL 6.x, 7.x & Wndows Server 2012 utilizing NCPA to run passive check.

Thanks,
Perry
