Forgot to mention that you control everything from their web-site (hence 
SAAS) which makes it very easy. You could resell the service ...

Re: [c-nsp] Monitoring External Web Server






If you want to go commercial, we use a software-as-a-service (SAAS) 
product called Gomez. You periodically contact your server from 
browser-client nodes on their backbone. You can also execute scripts from 
these nodes that will walk through your web-site in a pre-determined way. 

The pricing model is based on a 'cost per measurement' subscription where 
a measurement is an access of a web-site from a test node. If you do it 
hourly, that would be 24 per day, etc.

[c-nsp] Monitoring External Web Server






Hey guys,
 
We have a requirement to monitor the external availability of a web
server that hangs off our ASA DMZ interface. I was thinking of running
an IP SLA probe from our external router to test the web requests but I
was wondering if anyone had done something with EEM that could possibly
try to establish a TCP connection to the web server and report the
statistics somehow. I don't want to place a machine outside for the
monitoring so would prefer to do it from our router if possible.
 
Any thoughts?
 
Thanks, 
 
Aaron.
