| Nagios is a host and service monitor designed to inform you |
| of network problems before your clients, end-users or |
| managers do. It has been designed to run under the Linux |
| operating system, but works fine under most *NIX variants as |
| well. The monitoring daemon runs intermittent checks on |
| hosts and services you specify using external "plugins" |
| which return status information to Nagios. When problems are |
| encountered, the daemon can send notifications out to |
| administrative contacts in a variety of different ways |
| (email, instant message, SMS, etc.). Current status |
| information, historical logs, and reports can all be |
| accessed via a web browser. |
