SNMP v3 or SSH are secure but take some resources. I made some test with those 4 protocols. To check if a process is running takes by average : - 27 ms with nrpe (with ssl) - 62 ms with snmp v1 - 107 ms with snmp v3 (SHA for authentication and AES for privacy) - 113 ms with SSHv2 (authentication by certifcate) [1] http://tracker.nagios.org/bug_view_advanced_page.php?bug_id=125 -- Flyinvap ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
