The Nagios Basic Setup provides you with a concise manual that includes Labs to help you set up and begin monitoring with Nagios. The manual is designed to provide concise step-by-step instruction that will help you start monitoring servers, desktops, printers, routers and switches.
Basic Configuration
The Basic Nagios Configuration will help you install and configure Nagios on a CentOS or Ubuntu server. You will learn how to monitor public services like FTP, HTTP, SMTP, etc. from the Nagios server. The file locations and how to manage configuration files are covered as well as how to set up users. Security with tcp_wrappers, a firewall and user management are demonstrated. The Web interfaces is discussed in how to set it up for different users and how to view and manage Nagios online. The Basic Configuration is covered in five Labs that take you step-by-step in setting up Nagios.
Monitor Linux Boxes
NRPE is used to monitor Linux Boxes so the Nagios server can monitor users, processes, CPU, memory, etc. on Linux boxes. This section covers how to run manual commands for testing before you automate the monitoring of a Linux server or workstation.
Monitor Windows Boxes
The NSClient++ is used on the Windows machines to monitor with NRPE. You will learn how to monitor applications, processes, users, CPU, etc. with NRPE and how to securely manage your Windows servers.
Monitor Printers
Nagios allows you to monitor and manage printers connected to the network so you can verify toner level, paper jams, etc. The manual takes you through each step in setting up printer management.
Monitor Switches and Routers
This section covers how to work with SNMP to develop checks for routers and switches on your network as well as other devices. You will see how to setup a router port so you can review traffic stats and push those statistics into MRTG. The configuration of MRTG is covered in this section as well.
Passive Monitoring with NSCA
Learn how to set up passive host and service checks using NSCA. Learn how to use distributed monitoring for a large group of Nagios servers.
Log Scraping with Active and Passive Checks
Use active or passive checks to scrape your logs for key words so you can be notified.
IMAP and IMAPS Checks
Use Nagios to search logs for text strings and return a response when they are found. Or, just verify that your Mail Delivery Agent is up and running and return that information to you. Check email to see how many email you have and read the Subject lines with Nagios.
Set up SNMP on Windows and Linux servers and then check them from your Nagios box. Learn SNMP as a step-by-step process.
