Hi all together.
I am running WhatsUp Gold, but WuG's syslog and eventlog management is very weak.
And ipswitch has no good product for this with a webinterface.
As I only have to monitor approx. 20 servers, I don't want to buy a $$$$-solution. Kiwi syslog server would do it fine.
But for a quick overview on a device, I would like to integrate the informations from Kiwi syslog server into WuG.
WuG does allow; it's possible to insert iframes and insert custom html or a link.
(For further informations: look at http://www.plixer.com/products/netflow-sflow/scrutinizer-whatsupgold.php , there is also a pdf which explains this in detail.
It's for scrutinizer, but should work with every webpage).
I now would like to insert (in the device-report of WuG) a link to the webinterface of Kiwi.
To achieve a smooth operation, I will have to include some informations in the link.
I think this will be:
i) the login + password for the Kiwi Web Access
(Kiwi would be installed on the same machine or a machine in the same subnet; Wug and Kiwi won't be accessible from the web, only from the LAN).
ii) the IP or NetBiosName for the device of interest (on the reports-per-device, I only want to see the device-specific messages)
iii) if possible: Also some sort of filter string; for example to show only Messages from Service ABCD (running on the particular machine).
Question A)
Can I access a Kiwi Syslog Server - Webpage directly by a link including this informations?
If yes - how would such a link look like (I have found nothing on the web).
Are there any guides, how-to's, tips, experiences for this integration?
Question B)
Opening severals reports in WuG would fire several accesses to the Kiwi-Pages using the same login+password combo.
Does this cause any problems on Kiwi?
Kind regards to all,
