A question about MONITOR plugin

[Devan879]

Hi to everyone,
I've tried the monitor plugin and I've a question:
Is it only possible to monitor if one host is down (when I point the cursor upon my green host I can see only the ICMP echo reply status) or even if a host's service is down (for exemple if in my host I've configured more services I can monitor the status of all my services on this host)?

There's an alternative way in cacti (I'm asking without any plugins) to see this?

Thanx a lot guys!
