You can add additional parameters to agent using ExternalParameter config file option. For example, you can add to nxagentd.conf on some node

ExternalParameter = WebVersion:wget -qO- https://www.netxms.org/download | perl -e 'while(<>) { chomp $$_; if ($$_ =~ /stable version is ([0-9\.]+)\,/) { print "$$1\n"; } }'

After that, agent will provide additional parameter named WebVersion. You can get value of this parameter by creating new DCI on this node, and create thresholds to detect value changes.

Thank you for your reply. Where do i insert external parameter in NetXMS? Do i put it in DCI?
I would be appreicated if you could instruct more detail information. Thank you.

P.S. I am running windows server 2003 OS in server side.

ExternalParameter = WebVersion:wget -qO- https://www.netxms.org/download | perl -e 'while(<>) { chomp $$_; if ($$_ =~ /stable version is ([0-9\.]+)\,/) { print "$$1\n"; } }'

Please note, that original shell command looks like

wget -qO- https://www.netxms.org/download | perl -e 'while(<>) { chomp $_; if ($_ =~ /stable version is ([0-9\.]+)\,/) { print "$1\n"; } }'

but you need to duplicate $ symbol, because it is used for macro expansion in external parameter configuration.

Result of this parameter looks like following:

netxms:~ # nxget 10.0.0.90 WebVersion
1.0.8
netxms:~ #

Detect change in that page doesn't help for me. It is because i need to detect portion of change in web page. Is there any idea about writing external script, please? Please advice.

At a first glance, looks like you will need some external script. With built-in mechanisms, you can only check for entire page changes using ECS subagent. This subagent provides parameter which returns hash for given URL - so you can detect change in that page, but you cannot determine what part of the page was changed.
