Description-en: Syslog to Nagios integration
syslog-nagios-bridge brings Syslog and Nagios together, listening for
Syslog events from the network, determining when they meet an error
threshold, mapping the host and syslog tag value to a Nagios service
definition and submitting a passive checkresult to Nagios.
.
Users clear the alerts manually through the Nagios web UI after checking
the log and resolving the problem.
