Subject: [Nagios-users] Large networks ?<BR>> <BR>> <BR>>
Hi,<BR>> <BR>> I have installed Nagios on small networks,
and<BR>> now, I would like to get<BR>> some idea on how many
servers (servers, routers)<BR>> and services, Nagios
can<BR>> monitor.<BR>> And, in this case, which
configuration is<BR>> required, and what are the<BR>>
performances.<BR>> <BR>> May someone give some information
on this subject<BR>> ?<BR>> <BR>> Has someone got
experience by monitoring large<BR>> networks ?<BR>> <BR>>
<BR>> Any information you can give is most
welcome.<BR>> Thanks in advance for your help.<BR>> <BR>>
