[mrtg] Re: Inquiry

[Stephen Malenshek]

I know I am probably doing somehting wrong and feel really stupid, but I am 
having fits with this.  It is monitoring the Ethernet ports on this device 
without a problem, but when I try to monitor the CPU, I get the following.

www:/usr/local/mrtg# ./mrtg 208.189.209.1-cpu.cfg
SNMP Error:
Received SNMP response with error code
   error status: noSuchName
   index 1 (OID: 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.2.1.57.0)

SNMPGET: Failed to reach target:

I tried multiple times! XXXXXXXXXXX at 208.189.209.1

Can anyone assist me with this problem.  Am I supposed to be loading a 
specific OID somewhere? If I am, and this will show how clueless I really 
am, how do I load the OID and where should the file be stored....  I know I 
am probably becoming a nucence, but I am really frustrated, and would like 
to get this operational.  Thanks in advance. Oh by the way, this is a Cisco 
PIX Firewall that I am monitoring.  Like I said, I can monitor the ethernet 
ports without a problem, and I can use the same thing on a standard Cisco 
Router, and still can not get it to work.
