TACACs authentication External health monitor

Hello everyone,

I´m facing some hard times to figure out how to customize a health monitor which polls a TACACs server looking for authentication failures. Currently we have a default tcp monitor but I´m trying to build a more robust/sophisticated one which monitors not only application status (ports, resets...) but also authentication issues.

I found some discussions/forums stating that this could be accomplished by using some perl code/python code, but there are no examples and seriously, I´m really, really dumb when trying to write any code using any program language (I´ve started working to get this weakness solved).

If someone has any idea on how to do that, I really appreciate!

Thanks in advance!
