Is it posible to monitor different locations from single central server?

[praneethkatru]

Can PandoraFMS be used for monitoring devices in different locations from single central server?

in my situation, we have 10 branch offices all of them have routers, switches, servers in them. we want to monitor all of them from a single central location (main office). something like a pandora server instance (or any such device) in each branch to collect information about that office and send all the monitoring information about that branch to the central server in the main office, which collects such information from all server instances at each branch and present them in a single web page in the server at the central location.

In a nut shell, a central server which collects information about all branches through its agents in each location and be able to monitor and maintain them from main office.

Yes, of course it's possible.

There are different methods, select one.

- As you say, you can put one on each brach and set replication to a big one on main office. only at enterprise version.
- Another is open tentacle port on fw at main office and set a big main server to monitor all agents, keep an eye, must be a big one server.
- Another is like second, but set in each branch a tentacle proxy and this set the ip of the main server. keep an eye at wiki documentation.

Anyway, you can set transmissions over vpn or ssh to secure the data.
