[Xymon] Hello Everyone

[Scot Kreienkamp]

You could put the xymon instance in AWS with your servers and only make it available from your servers via AWS firewall.  Same with your internal servers.

Xymon doesn't encrypt the data channel from client to server, so you may want to use something like stunnel to secure it.

Hello John

Thanks for your reply, I am Debian on a non virtualized Server, and don’t have VPN do you know of any other way?

Hi Matthew,

Each Xymon implementation is sort of unique - depending on your use case.

Follow the directions to set up the Xymon server on whatever host system and then go through the help topics.  They are quite rich.  If your environment on which you will run the Xymon server is not virtualized, consider obtaining a Raspberry Pi to be the Xymon server.  It will handle a surprising load.

Assuming that you have a VPN to your Azure and AWS environments, have the agents report back directly to your Xymon server.   Since it appears you are a Windows environment, you will want the BBWin agents - https://sourceforge.net/projects/bbwin/  - results may vary.

Once you get the front end properly showing data, then worry about the alerting and other fun things.  Xymon is more of a framework and you can monitor and report on an amazing amount of things.

Hello,

I am an IT Manager for a non-profit charity, and am looking at using Zymon, to monitor our servers:


·         My Terminal Server (same network as the Zymon server)

·         Web Server on Azure (Windows Server 2019)

·         Web Server on AWS (Windows Server 2016)

All of my servers have fixed external IP addresses, can someone point in the right direction to set everything up with my servers and email notifications.
