Hi,
I'm playing around with Nagios and try to let it check if the services are
reachable on my server. For the two TCP ports it's no problem, but for the UDP
check it is required to "talk" with the service, to have a response.
The Nagios plugin check_udp needs a send (a string that I send to the service)
and a response (a string that I get back to make sure, it is answering) string.
# /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_udp -H {MyBackupServer} -p 10080
With UDP checks, a send/expect string must be specified.
Usage:check_udp -H host -p port [-w <warning time>] [-c <critical time>] [-s
<send string>] [-e <expect string>] [-q <quit string>][-m <maximum bytes>] [-d
<delay>] [-t <timeout seconds>] [-r <refuse state>] [-M <mismatch state>] [-v]
[-4|-6] [-j] [-D <days to cert expiry>] [-S <use SSL>] [-E]
What string can I send to 10080/udp and what should I expect to get back?
Regards
Marc
