ping, telnet, ssh, from nagios-core website

[Will Bashlor]

Thanks Mike. If macro's can be used in action_urls I think I can get it
to work with CustomURL <http://customurl.codeplex.com/> . Would you
happen to have the link to the patch allowing multiple URLs? I can't
find it but will look more when I get home.

Looks like someone did come up with a patch for the CGI's that would
allow multiple action URL's, but it may take some playing around to get
it to do what you want it to do. Although there may be other addon
projects that do this already that I'm unaware of.

 

To my knowledge you can't use a browser to access ssh, ping, telnet etc.


You'd need some sort of a custom API to be able to run those commands
for you from the command line.

 

Nagios XI (commercial version of Nagios) does have some of these quick
actions. Image is attached.
