host and network monitoring system - metapackage
Icinga is a modular monitoring framework for hosts, services, and networks, based on the Nagios project. It is designed to be easy to understand and modify to fit any need. Features include: * monitoring of network services via ping, SMTP, POP3, HTTP, NNTP, or TCP port; * plugin interface to allow for user-developed service checks * contact notifications when problems occur and get resolved (via email, pager, or user-defined method) * support for proactive problem resolution (handlers can be defined to be run during service or host events) * web output: current status, notifications, problem history, log file, etc. This is a metapackage which depends on the Icinga core and the web front-end.
