Nagios - Next Generation Management

Feature Benefit
Rapid Problem Resolution The monitoring event console provides health and status summary information highlighting critical events that require immediate attention. SDT Connector integration then provides automated access to the tools required for incident resolution. So NOC operators and administrators have secure in-band and out-of-band remote access and control of all their physical and virtual ICT assets from a single screen.
Sophisticated Monitoring and Alerts Nagios provides a sophisticated and comprehensive alarming and notification mechanism with escalation rules to alert you of breached thresholds and potential problems. Event/alarm pre-processing reduces the incidence of derived, spurious, and false alarms while still ensuring that actual outages are reliably reported. Security, performance monitoring and automatic alerts for defined system events via e-mail, SNMP and SMS mitigate system and network disasters.
Extensive Monitoring Monitoring of network services (SMTP, POP3, HTTP, NNTP, ICMP, SNMP, FTP, SSH). Monitoring of host resources (processor load, disk usage, system logs). Monitoring of probes (temperature, alarms...). And the Nagios simple plugin design allows you to easily develop yourr own service checks using the tools of choice (Bash, C++, Perl, Ruby, Python, PHP, C# ...)
Secure Access and Control All management access (using browsers, VNC, RDP, SSH or Telnet) are securely tunneled with strong selectable encryption (3DES, Blowfish, AES, Arcfour) and flexible authentication (Public Key, One-Time Password, Kerberos, LDAP, TACACS) and access control (trusted networks, dial back, restricted user access zones). Advanced auditing and tracking helps the organization conform to mandatory compliance requirements like Sarbanes-Oxley, GLBA and HIPAA.
Distributed Monitoring Nagios is designed for managing distributed computing infrastructure - across multiple organizational departments and across geographic locations. When configured with distributed monitoring, the overhead of performing service checks from the central monitoring server is offloaded onto distributed console servers, which is important when you start monitoring hundreds or thousands of hosts.
Cost Effective GPL licensed FOSS solution provides practically unlimited scalability and specialized functionality needed for complex environments - at no charge. Nagios can be customized with proprietary plug-ins or any of the extensive family of community developed plugs-ins
Multi-platform Coverage Nagios monitors a full range of elements including SNMP MIBs and traps, log files, event logs and the full range of application and database servers, blades, service processors, routers, switches, firewalls, printers, UPS and power distribution units, and NAS or SAN storage systems. Simple click and connect centralized management.
