Untangle provides you with many methods to monitor your server. The different methods include using Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), syslog, and summary reports.
SNMP can be used to remotely query and monitor the current state of the Untangle NGFW server. SNMP has two modes: Get and Trap. Get is when the SNMP server queries the client (that is, the Untangle server) for its state, while Trap is when the client sends an alert to the SNMP server because of a high priority event (for example, high CPU usage for 5 minutes). The SNMP settings are located under Config | Administration | SNMP.
