Is you haven't set up mc yet now it's time to do it. Can you log to cm with web GUI? From there you could use mc for IDX cluster. If not then your only option is do queries towards internal indexes, if you have rights for it.

These are indexers. I don't have access to login into indexers from frontend to check monitoring console.
