check_mk Server (!) on OPNsense appliance

[jimjohn]

Hi, I want to start monitoring my network better. Therefore, I found that check_mk may be suitable. Since I do limit my hardware a little and the OPNsense is running 24/7 anyway, I thought I would make the OPNsense the check_mk Server and all other real (Proxmox) and virtual (VM / LXC) hosts agents. Does this make sense? Does anyone do this? I only found a check_mk agent plugin for OPNsense, no server plugin. Or is check_mk not the right approach? I would like to see if my apt / yum packages are out of date and monitor suspicious activity in logs / network traffic. The OPNsense could be server and agent at the same time I think. Glad if you can help me get on the right track!
