Every month, Centreon extends its monitoring connector catalog and implements new connectors, allowing you to connect your IT monitoring with always more ITOps tools.
The result: increased visibility and business observability capabilities. We also offer enhancements and fixes on existing connectors.
For February 2026, we’re introducing two new monitoring connectors, multiple improvements and a few fixes on existing connectors.
Many of these improvements are a direct result of the valuable suggestions and ideas from our The Watch community members. We thank Watchers for their significant contribution to the continuous evolution of our software.
You may also read the related documentation, contact our sales team, or post a message on The Watch to learn more.
Reminder: Plugin Packs have been renamed. We are now referring to them as monitoring connectors.
Two new monitoring connectors to discover this month.
Fortinet FortiAuthenticator REST API
FortiAuthenticator is an identity and access management (IAM) solution from Fortinet. It acts as a central authentication server that integrates with your network infrastructure (especially Fortinet’s security products like FortiGate) and other directory services to enforce secure access policies. This new connector extends FortiAuthenticator SNMP by leveraging Fortinet’s REST API to check Fortitokens counts and statuses. Thanks to our contributors mchris-villa and cgagnaire.
Zscaler ZDX Rest API
Zscaler Digital Experience (ZDX) provides insights into end-user experience by measuring application and network performance from user locations, helping identify where performance issues originate — user, network, or application. With this connector, Centreon can automatically discover ZDX locations and applications and monitor performance metrics such as fetch time or number of users.
Enhancements
Base Pack
Reduced the ICMP packet size to ensure it can pass through firewalls protecting SaaS software.
HP Ilo XMLAPI
The connector now uses warning and critical thresholds provided by ILO data when no custom thresholds are defined.
AIX SSH
Added a FILTERARG macro to the Process service template to filter on the process’ arguments. Also added the ability to display details of all processes (including “OK” processes) in the long output (issue 5945).
Linux CMA
Added a Custom-Script service template to run custom commands.
Windows CMA
Added new parameters for the Services service template and added a Custom-Script service template to run custom commands.
Breaking changes
PostgreSQL
Added support for applying thresholds to the total number of connections, not just per database. This breaking change replaces the `*FILTER` macros in the Query-Time, Locks, Backend and Hitratio templates with more explicit `*INCLUDE*` and `*EXCLUDE*` macro (issue 5350).
The following connectors are now compatible with NSClient++ 0.11.8, which is currently available as a pre-release here. The breaking change occurs if you update NSClient++ without updating the connector. Updating the connector alone is safe. Fixing issue 95.
- Active Directory Rest API
- EMC Symmetrix API
- Microsoft Exchange NSClient RestAPI
- Microsoft SCCM NSClient
- Microsoft WSUS
- Netbackup NSClient++ API
- Veeam NSClient API
- Windows NSClient API
Bug Fixes
Centreon DEM (formerly Quanta) Rest API
The connector now returns an OK status when no are incidents found (instead of UNKNOWN).
Veeam WSMAN
Added a specific command handler dedicated to PowerShell scripts to avoid JSON error messages occurring in some cases.
Windows WSMAN
Added a specific command handler dedicated to PowerShell scripts to avoid JSON error messages occurring in some cases, such as updates and pending-reboot modes (issues 4461 and 4599).
Amazon FSx
Fixed a mix-up between data-write-ops and data-write-bytes for the Fsx-DataUsage service (issue 5944).
Fortinet Fortigate SNMP
Fixed an error in the bandwidth calculation for the SDWan service (issue 5959).
