Think about how you would determine if the device were up or down and  
find a nagios plugin that checks that remotely. There are many options.

Can you ping it? check_icmp, check_ping, or check_fping.
Does it serve web pages? check_http
Does it listen for ssh connections? check_ssh
Does it listen on any tcp or udp ports? check_tcp or check_udp.
etc, etc, etc...
