check_iax nagios plugin

About check_iax

Nagios plugin check_iax allows system administrators to monitor IAX/IAX2 devices and servers.

System requirements

Unix system with gcc/make installed. Tested on Linux and FreeBSD, but should work on any POSIX system.

How it works

Plugin check_iax sends IAX POKE request to the remote server and wait for IAX PONG reply. Then it sends IAX ACK packet back to remote.

Configuration

Add check_iax command to your nagios commands file

# 'check_iax' command definition, 100ms WARNING, 500ms CRITICAL
define command{
        command_name    check_iax
        command_line    $USER1$/check_iax -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -w 100 -c 500
