Chapter 10: Nagios Integration

10.3 Configuring Nagios distributed monitoring

To activate the Console Server's Nagios distributed monitoring:
• Nagios integration must be enabled and a path established to the central/upstream Nagios server
• If the Console Server is to periodically report on Nagios-monitored services, then the NSCA client embedded in the
Console Server must be configured: the NSCA program enables scheduled check-ins with the remote Nagios server and is
used to send passive check results across the network to the remote server
• If the Nagios server is to actively request status updates from the Console Server, then the NRPE server embedded in the
Console Server must be configured – the NRPE server is the Nagios daemon for executing plug-ins on remote hosts
• Each of the Serial Ports and each of the Hosts connected to the Console Server which are to be monitored must have
Nagios enabled and any specific Nagios checks configured
• Lastly the central/upstream Nagios monitoring host must be configured
