Nagios XI on Azure VM
Posted: Wed Jul 16, 2025 10:54 pm
Few months back, I installed Nagios core on Azure VM. I have a network background, with no idea about coding and server configs. With the help of my colleague I managed to install Nagios core from Azure Marketplace. I was able to do basic monitoring (ping and uptime) on it for all my network devices in the organization. But I am unable to do advanced monitoring like real-time and historic bandwidth utilization of different links, errors on links, etc.
I have a requirement where I want to see the bandwidth utilization of Internet link during different days and times, so that we are aware if we are going to hit bottleneck.
Does anyone has done this kind of monitorings in Nagios core? If yes, it would be really great if you could share some document how could I do that.
Or do I need to install Nagios XI instead, and for that do anyone have the process to run a VM in Azure as I didn't find Nagios XI image in Azure Marketplace.
