IPv6 monitoring...

Greetings...

What are people using for IPv6 monitoring - in particular, for monitoring services such as DNS, Web, E-mail, etc. ?

Nagios seems the people's choice. Any others...open source or commercial ?

TIA...

Vyto

We are using Solarwinds on our systems..... it's one commercial system to
consider.

Open source Icinga and Nagios would work fine, and the configurations
should be (mostly) interchangable, with a notable exception.

Icinga's host object type has an "address6" paramter, which Nagios does
not have. For Nagios, a patch is available in http://goo.gl/IHkKE

https://www.icinga.org/2011/07/21/how-to-dual-stack-1pv4-ipv6-monitoring-with-icinga/
shows one way of doing dual stack monitoring of a single service, using
the "check_multi" monitoring plugin.
