Good morning, I want to ask how to add in Centreon (with license) a Lantronix SLC device that have 2 interfaces with 2 IP.

The connection of the devices is as follows:

  • Eth0 → Firewall 1 (active)
  • Eth1 → Firewall 2 (standby)

When Firewall 1 is active, the device is reachable via IP of Eth0 and the IP on Eth1 remain unreachable.

We use SNMPv3 and Centreon enabled for active checks.

When we switch traffic on Firewall 2, we reach IP of Eth1 and lost reachability of IP on Eth0.

If I add both IP as single device, it’s all ok, but I would like to group the two IPs into a single object.

Is it possible to do that? If yes, what is the process to do that?

Thanks a lot for your support, let me know if you need more informations.

i don’t believe that’s supported, but i suppose something like a virtual ip or a DNS record with multiple ips could be used to bundle them in a host/domain that you could target, then integrating your two ips in one centreon host.

I’m curious to see how you will handle that.


Hi I'm on an open source Centreon and for this I've created a custom script that tests the 2 IPs and if necessary raises an alert more or less serious depending on the problem (only 1 IP down, the 2) ...


I don't think there is anything for that.
