How to monitor a range of TCP/UDP ports with a SAM application?

Hi folks. Say I want to monitor a large range of TCP ports on a server. Let's say 9000-9200. Is my only option to create a SAM template and click one-by-one and add 200 individual TCP Monitor components? I would think that monitoring a range of ports would be a common need for server and application monitoring but I can't find any easy way to do it and I don't want to spend hours individually creating hundreds of TCP port components.

  • a single application listening on 200 ports is not really that common.  I mean unless you are running 200 full xwindows desktops over VNC... then yeah.

    Seriously though, it might be a lot easier to run a single script monitor that outputs something like:

    statistic: 150

    message: 150 ports listening, 50 ports down
