NSClient++. Monitoring the devices behind theFirewall.

[Sal Ila]

Thank you very much for your feedback. I have got some good ideas from you!

I work in the IT Security and these kind of scenarios are quite common.
Among the list of proposed solutions, the NSClient++ passive check seems the
most appropriate. In fact, the mechanism I have configured seems using a
"pushing" from the Nagios server to the its clients. Customers tend to keep
FW rules tight and modifications are quite difficult to obtain or being
authorized. So, in the first instance, I am going to study how the passive
check method works and try to implement it.

Best regards

Salvo
