Can we monitor UDP port with check_mk?

Hello,

Is it possible to monitor UDP ports with check_mk raw edition?

TIA

There is a rule called “Monitor specific TCP/UDP connections and listeners”

That might be a good starting point.

If you can install the agent on the server that provides the UDP service, Elias’ reply should get you sorted.

If it’s a remote service (or it’s an appliance that does not allow for agent installation) checking UDP ports is likely only possible if you “speak” the specific language expected on the port so that you can check for a well-formatted reply. Is this a custom protocol you want to monitor, or standard DNS, RADIUS, NTP or the like?

Yes - there are certain ports which gets opened by filebeat hence I guess agent can be installed.
