Protocol And Service Monitoring
Nagios provides complete monitoring of network protocols and services across network devices, switches, routers, web servers, web services, and operating systems.
What protocol or service are you interested in monitoring?
SNMP
Tracks bandwidth, interface status, and device health across network infrastructure and servers.
WMI
HTTP
The standard protocol transfers unencrypted data, making it vulnerable to interception.
HTTPS
The secure version encrypts data, protecting sensitive activities.
DHCP
Monitor DHCP server health and lease distribution to maintain reliable IP address management.
ICMP
Verify network reachability and latency with ICMP (ping) to detect connectivity issues early.
SSH
Validate remote access and command execution capabilities for secure system monitoring.
FTP
Check FTP server uptime and responsiveness to support reliable file transfers.
IMAP
Ensure email service functionality by monitoring IMAP server availability and response time.
