Addons extend the core functionality provided by Nagios.

Community-Built Nagios Addons

There are hundreds of additional, community-contributed addons that extend Nagios' native capabilities by providing additional functionality with monitoring, notifications, reporting, frontend UIs, and more. Install addons to trick out your Nagios install.

NRPE

NRPE allows you to remotely execute Nagios plugins on other Linux/Unix machines. This allows you to monitor remote machine metrics (disk usage, CPU load, etc.). NRPE can also communicate with Windows agent addons like NSClient++, so you can check metrics on remote Windows machines as well.
