How we can monitor Device42

Modified on: Tue, 31 Mar, 2026 at 4:08 PM

For monitoring purpose we suggest three options:

  1. Nagios monitoring integration 

    Device42 offers a Nagios plugin for Device42 which can be downloaded from this link Plugin Download, and allows easy monitoring of the health status of your Device42 appliance. Data returned includes:

    • Device42 Database Size
    • Appliance Disk space usage
    • Memory usage
    • CPU usage
  2. Zabbix Integration which can be downloaded from this link Zabbix Download
  3. API call to check the health status of the CPU/RAM, DB size and the status of recent backups
curl https://yourdevice42ipaddress:4343/healthstats/

/4242 port can be used if the SSL is disabled on Device42/
