I am using Nagios to monitor an ATM circuit that has multiple PVCs, some with a network behind them.
Initially, I set up our router as a host, the ATM interface as a service, and the PVCs as services dependent on the ATM interface. The problem with this is that there are hosts on the other end of those PVCs, and there is no way to make those 'hosts' dependent on a service -- in this case the ATM line itself. What I ended up doing was making the ATM circuit it's own host, so that if that circuit is down, I don't get notified of everything on the other end of it that is down. Is this "correct", or is there a better way to do it ? ========================================================== Chris Candreva -- [email protected] -- (914) 948-3162 WestNet Internet Services of Westchester http://www.westnet.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Throughout its 18-year history, RSA Conference consistently attracts the world's best and brightest in the field, creating opportunities for Conference attendees to learn about information security's most important issues through interactions with peers, luminaries and emerging and established companies. http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsaconf-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Nagios-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null
