Nagios Monitoring

Nagios, the most popular open source solution for system and network monitoring, is extremely robust, but it's also intensely complex.

Nagios Monitoring Capabilities

  • Tracking of network services such as SMTP, HTTP, FTP, and NNTP
  • Monitoring of host machines: CPU load, disk and memory utilization, running processes, etc.
  • Capability to define host hierarchy, allowing distinction between machines that are down as opposed to ones that are unreachable
  • Support personnel notifications by e-mail, beeper, or other user-specified means when service or machine problems are detected or are fixed
  • Ability to define event handlers to be executed upon the detection of service or host events for proactive problem resolution
  • Support for implementing backup and distributed network monitoring computers
  • External command option that allows ad hoc modifications to be made to the tracking and alerting activity via the utilization of event handlers, the web interface, and third-party software
  • Retention of host and service state across program restarts
  • Planned downtime for suppressing machine and service alerts during deliberate service breaks
  • Web interface for examining current network status, notification and problem archive, log file, etc.
  • Permissions scheme that enables you to limit what customers can view and modify from the web applet

MRTG and Nagios Network Monitoring Consultants

The Nagios network monitoring system is a host/service monitor that runs with Linux or a UNIX variant. The monitoring daemon runs periodic checks on hosts and services you specify by means of outside add-ons which bring back status information to Nagios. When issues are encountered, the Nagios can send alerts to management contacts in a number of ways such as email, IM, or Short Message Service. Up to date status data, archival logs, and reports can be accessed using a web browser.
