The closest to your BB interface above is the
Nagios Service Check Acceptor NSCA.
It accepts a plain text format on a TCP socket.
Besides the binary send_ncsa there is Net::NSCA::Client, which I do _not_ know.
But keep in mind that pure passive checks are a bit at odds with Nagios' state polling philosophy.
If you are not allowed to add an agent like NRPE or the excellent check_mk, you may consider check_by_ssh.
Since years OpenSSH offers the ControlMaster option to re-use existing connections.
Without the very expensive key exchange phase, the transfer performance is not much different from raw TCP such as with NRPE.
It just needs a bit of thought with your templates to coordinate master and slave.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
