Hi,
You need use static NAT to comunicate Pandora Server in public network with Pandora Agent in Private network.

You will have a private network which can see the IP address of the Pandora server, becuase the router changes teh private IPs for public IPs, when the private IPs start the comunication. But the server will not be able to see the private IP addresses of the individual clients, because pandora server in public network can not routing the packet to private network. You need a diferent public IP for each client in private network and configure a static Nat. It is necessary to use network modules, but you can configure one agent in each internal machine and to send the data to PAndora server, Or configure a only agent to gather all information and send it to pandora server.

What you want monitor in the private network?

Bye

Hi,
Thanks for the quick reply.

I want to be able to monitor all the workstations on the network along with all the available routers and servers. I am interested in monitoring the hardware charateristics of the workstations and servers (such as free disk space) and monitoring when a server goes offline.

As the number of workstations could be potentially 1000s I dont really want to assign a public Ip address for each client. Is it possible to have one client collect all the data for the workstations and servers and send that information to the Pandora server?

Hi,
Can you install Pandora server in teh private Network?,

As pandora Server is in Public network and the agents are in private network you miss the possibility to use a Networ Server,

Are the workstation Linux or Windows?

To monitor Routers and swich you will need a remote agent install in a linux, becuase you can not use the server Sensor.

Perhaps, the solution is install the pandora server and database in the private network and one pandora console in public network.

bye.

I suppose the bigger question and this may be because I’ve only started to look at this product, but can I deploy several Network Servers in different private networks (different customers being monitored) talking to a master web console (in the public IP space)? It seems on the the surface that I can.

Essentially we monitor many different networks at different customer locations and are looking at alternatives to the usual crowd. Pandora seems like a great start.

Hi again, and sorry by the delay.
I suppose that you want use Pandora to monitor a large enviroment with different private network.
I think that Pandora is very interseting for this, Thanks to his modular modular architecture is posible configure several servers which report data to central database. And is posible access to this database from diferent consoles in diferents places. If you need, is possible configure a Mysql cluster.
