Introduction

This is a check plugin, written in Go, for Icinga 2 to monitor a Fritz!Box.

Support

Please ask your questions related to the configuration in the community channels. For bugs and feature requests please open an issue.

Requirements

The TR-064 feature must be enabled on the Fritz!Box.

You can enable the feature in the following menu:

Heimnetz -> Netzwerk -> Netzwerkeinstellungen ->  Heimnetzfreigaben -> Zugriff für Anwendungen zulassen

Fritz!Box configuration

Installation

  • Download the latest stable binary package for your architecture from the release page.
  • Verify the checksum using sha256sum.

Example:

$ wget [DOWNLOAD URL CURRENT RELEASE]]/check_fritz.linux.amd64
$ wget [DOWNLOAD URL CURRENT RELEASE]]/check_fritz.linux.amd64.sha256

$ sha256sum -c check_fritz.linux.amd64.sha256
check_fritz.linux.amd64: OK

The checksum verification must return OK.

If you successfully verified the checksum, move the check plugin binary to your Icinga 2 plugin directory. It is also recommended to rename the binary package to check_fritz, since the suffix is only required for the checksum verification.

Ensure that you also set the executable bit with chmod +x check_fritz.

Icinga 2 CheckCommand

You can use this predefined Icinga 2 CheckCommand. For more information about CheckCommand objects please refere to the official Icinga 2 documenation.

object CheckCommand "fritz" {
	command = [ CustomPluginDir + "/check_fritz" ]

	arguments += {
		"--hostname" = "$fritz_hostname$"
		"--port" = "$fritz_port$"
		"--username" = "$fritz_username$"
		"--password" = "$fritz_password$"
		"--method" = "$fritz_method$"
		"--warning" = "$fritz_warning$"
		"--critical" = "$fritz_critical$"
		"--index" = "$fritz_index$"
		"--ain" = "$fritz_ain$"
		"--timeout" = "$fritz_timeout$"
		"--modelgroup" = "$fritz_modelgroup$" 
	}

	vars.fritz_hostname = "$address$"
}

Note

This predefined CheckCommand object for Icinga 2 requires a global constants named CustomPluginDir. You can define them in constants.conf in the root Icinga 2 configuration directory. For more information please read the official Icinga 2 documentation about global constants.
