= Provided Parameters =
 
When loaded, PORTCHECK subagent adds the following parameters to agent:
 
{| class="wikitable" style="width: 70%"
|-
! Parameter !! Description
|-
| ServiceCheck.Custom(''target'',''port''[,''timeout'']) || Check that TCP ''port'' is open on ''target''. Optional argument ''timeout'' specifies timeout in milliseconds.  This is a very simple test that does nothing more than check the port is open.
|-
| ServiceCheck.HTTP(''target'',[''port''],''URI'',''hostHeader''[,''regex''[,''timeout'']]) || Check that HTTP service is running on ''target''.  Optional argument ''port'' specifies the port to connect with, otherwise 80 will be used.  The ''URI'' is NOT a URL it is the host header request URI.  As an example to test URL http://www.netxms.org/index.html enter www.netxms.org:/index.html. ''hostHeader'' is currently not used, but may be the Host option at some point in the request made.  Optional argument ''regex'' is the regular expression to check returned from the request, otherwise "^HTTP/1.[01] 200 .*" will be used.  Optional argument ''timeout'' specifies timeout in milliseconds.
|-
| ServiceCheck.POP3(''target'',''username'',''password''[,''timeout'') || Check that POP3 service is running on ''target'' and that we are able to login using the supplied ''username'' and ''password''.  Optional argument ''timeout'' specifies timeout in milliseconds.
|-
| ServiceCheck.SMTP(''target'',''toAddress''[,''timeout'']) || Check that SMTP service is running on ''target'' and that it will accept an e-mail to ''toAddress''.  The e-mail will be from noreply@''DomainName'' using the ''DomainName'' option in the config file or its default value (see below).  Optional argument ''timeout'' specifies timeout in milliseconds.
|-
| ServiceCheck.SSH(''target''[,''port''[,''timeout]]) || Check that SSH service is running on ''target''.  Optional argument ''port'' specifies the port to connect with, otherwise 22 will be used.  Optional argument ''timeout'' specifies timeout in milliseconds.
|-
| ServiceCheck.Telnet(''target''[,''port''[,''timeout]]) || Check that Telnet service is running on ''target''.  Optional argument ''port'' specifies the port to connect with, otherwise 23 will be used.  Optional argument ''timeout'' specifies timeout in milliseconds.
|}
 
= Response Codes =
All of the ServiceCheck.* parameters return the following values:
 
{| class="wikitable" style="width: 70%"
|-
! Value !! Description
|-
| 0 || Success, ''target'' was connected to an returned expected response.
|-
| 1 || Invalid arguments were passed.
|-
| 2 || Cannot connect to ''target''.
|-
| 3 || Invalid / Unexpected response from ''target''.
|}
 
= Configuration file =
 
All configuration parameters related to PORTCHECK subagent should be placed into '''*PORTCHECK''' section of agent's configuration file. The following configuration parameters are supported:
 
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Parameter !! Format !! Description !! Default value
|-
| DomainName || ''string'' || Set default domain name for processing. Currently this is only used by SMTP check to set the from e-mail address. || netxms.org
|-
| Timeout || ''milliseconds'' || Set response timeout to ''milliseconds''. || 3000
|}
 
== Configuration Example ==
 
<syntaxhighlight lang="ini">
# This sample nxagentd.conf instructs agent to:
#  1. Load PORTCHECK subagent
#  2. Set domain name for from e-mail to netxms.demo
#  3. Default timeout for commands set to 5 seconds (5000 milliseconds)
 
MasterServers = netxms.demo
SubAgent = /usr/lib/libnsm_portcheck.so
 
*portCheck
DomainName = netxms.demo
Timeout = 5000
