Exchange public MX DNS record

134-exchange-dns-mx.yaml

DNS

What this example does

Exchange infrastructure monitoring: Exchange public MX DNS record. It helps operators check the availability of this client-access or mail-routing dependency.

Checks and behavior

  • Queries DNS records or resolver behavior ([{'type': 'MX', 'exists': True, 'min_count': 1}]).
  • Formats results for nagios output.

Adapt example domains, addresses, credentials and thresholds to your environment before use.
