How to Setup Server Monitoring | Support

The purpose of this guide is to provide you with general instructions for configuring Basic and Advanced Monitoring

Log in to No-IP.com.
Click on My Services then Server Monitoring.
Click Actions > Configure next to your domain.
Click Add Monitor.
Select the service (HTTP, FTP, TCP Etc) to monitor from the drop-down menu and click Next.
Select a hostname that you would like to monitor.

The next step is configuring what the monitoring service will check for and notification options.

Select a port to monitor.
Select an option in the Extra dropdown menu. Select Document Root unless you have a file hosted with the same name scheme in the drop down list.
To start Monitoring immediately, select “Yes”. If you have Advanced Monitoring, you can enable failover support for this host by clicking Yes on Use Offline Settings. Make sure you set up your offline settings for this host under the “Plus” link on the top left.
Enter a Primary / Secondary Contact. Define where you want the alerts sent. Example (enter your primary email address for primary, and if your cell phone can receive emails you can put that for the secondary. This way, you can be notified on both if Monitoring sees a problem.
Select which events to be notified for. You can select different rules in the “Notify on” list.
Example: If you want to know about anything that happens, on your primary contact select “All Events.” For the secondary contact, you could be more selective and choose “Critical and Recovery.”
Click Create when finished.

The selected service on your server will be checked the next time the monitoring service runs, about once every 10 minutes.

You can view the status from the monitoring page. Click Actions > Status.
