Thanks, I did do that. I was able to add more hosts by editing the
switch.cfg file. It seems less than intuitive and certainly not a good way
to populate the network if there are many devices. I have 200+ switches and
even more servers. I was hoping there would be a more efficient manner
inwhich Nagios would be told what to monitor.
Thanks

read the way nagios is configured and you'll understand how to add hosts
and services.

I'm pretty new at this. I just installed Nagios 3.X on Ubuntu 8.10. I
have
my first host (Cisco 6509) being polled. The quick start guide worked
fine
and I followed the instructions on monitoring routers and switches.
However
how do I get Nagios to monitor other switches? Do I just keep adding
lines
to the switch.cfg template?
