IP and hostname mapping control

[Kevin Keane]

You could use the check_dns plugin with the -a argument.

Hi everybody,

I'm looking for a way to check out the mapping between a hostname and IP address.

Example: IP 192.168.0.1 exists and if the hostname foo.mylan.com is not associated with this IP, I would have an alarm.

Indeed the script below returns no alarm :

define host {
    use             unix-server
    host_name       foo.mylan.com
    display_name    foo
    address         192.168.0.1
    check_command   check_http
}

define service {
    use            local-service
    host_name      foo.mylan.com
    service_description   HTTP local
    check_command  check_http
}

Any idea?

Thanks a lot

François
