b) purchase SAM
c) devise your own method using one of the other suggestions on this thread
d) hire someone to do (c) for you.
note, personally I'd look at modifying Protocol.vbs -A Windows VBScript to test TCP Service Response | Symantec Connect and the solarwinds API to update a custom property on the node using info fromNeed Help with Update through SOAP via VBScript
Thanks for the answer the problems ares.
a) I hate whatsup
b) I work in and our client is a Latin America company, they want the pearls of the virgin for two nickels
c) Im thinking of buying the lowest SAM, mounting a Linux server running a script collecting TCP status for all our devices and send it to a Log File, then configure a log parser searching for keywords "admin port without response on FW XXXYYY", this way i could integrate the alerting in better way than a custom property
d) If i cannot i guess this is the next step
