[asterisk-dev] [asterisk-users] VoIP monitoring tools

While I agree with Nitesh that Nagios has some great monitoring tools, I
would recommend that you use Icinga 2 rather than Nagios with those
plugins,

Icinga has a bit more flexibility and better structure after it was forked
from Nagios.

We are using it to monitor everything from server status (CPU, hard disk,
processes, etc.), connectivity (ping, dropped packets, etc)
and Asterisk processes (number of calls, channels, etc.).

Hello,

Nagios is really a good tool, we are already using it to monitor Asterisk.
I'm looking for something which can monitor the Asterisk and store the
information
somewhere in a DB, where I could retrieve it from Kamailio.
I need that information in Kamailio to make routing decisions.

Thanks,
Nitesh
