Nagios Looking Glass
What Is It?
Nagios Looking Glass is a web-based application that allows Nagios system administrators to provide up-to-the-minute status information about their Nagios-monitored network directly to their end users. The application is designed to provide a read-only "dashboard" view into the network without the complexity and security risks that arise by giving end users access to the Nagios web console.
Nagios Looking Glass (NLG for short) is in production use within many large organisations, including universities, and multi-national companies such as PepsiCo.
Project Update - Nagios 3 and NLG version 2
Although development on the NLG project has slowed somewhat after the release of v1.0.6, the project is still very much alive, with compatibility for Nagios 3 being tested, and the development of v2.0 due to start in Q1 2008.
NLG is currently developed in PHP, however the v2.0 series will see the introduction of a new C++ event handler which will be fed by Nagios whenever a host/service state changes, instead of the client/server poller model as in the v1.0 series.
