PRTG Manual: Add Remote Probe

Remote probes can extend your monitoring with PRTG:

  • Monitor different subnetworks that are separated from your PRTG core server by a firewall, and keep an eye on remote locations. You can install one or more remote probes.
  • Distribute monitoring load by taking it from the PRTG core server system and putting it on one or more remote probe systems.

There are three types of remote probes:

  1. Classic remote probe
  2. Multi-platform probe
  3. Mini probe
