Check_MK check for Fortigate firewalls

3 Kommentare
I've got a Fortigate 60C and wanted to monitor it in Check_MK. I could find a plugin written by Justin McMillen, but it didn't work in the version 1.1.2 of Check_MK. Also they seemed to use SNMP OIDs, which my Fortigate 60C didn't have. So I've updated his checks and created a new version of the plugin. The checks use SNMP to get CPU and RAM usage as ell as the session count. You can download the package from Check_MK Exchange site.

Check_MK plugin to get firmware and service tag of a DELL Powerconnect switch

check_mk is a great monitoring application! I've been trying it for a couple of days first and I am convinced that check_mk has a big future due to its nice conception, super built-in capabilities and the ability to create own check plugins with less effort.

I also tried to create a new check plugin for DELL Powerconnect switches, because the check plugins for such switches provided by check_mk distribution cannot show the firmware version and the service tag of the switch. I copied a provided check plugin (to be more accurate: snmp_info)and modified it a little bit. I'd like to share my result below, please enjoy it!
