You must specify, in the pix config, witch host are allowed to get snmp
values from pix:
snmp-server host <interface> <ip> [poll|trap]

Subject: [mrtg] no response from pix



hi everybody
I'm new to mrtg and I'm trying to configure it
mrtg in my intention has got to run on RH 7.1 so I tried to conf
mrtg.cfg as follows

cfgmaker --global "WorkDir: /PATH" \
                   --global "Options[_]: growright,bits" \
                   --output /path/to/mrtg.cfg \
                   --ifref=ip \
                   public at x.y.z.t

the machine to monitor is a pix firewall with two interfaces one public
and one private (IP: x.y.z.t)
On the pix there are the following string

no snmp-server location
no snmp-server contact
snmp-server community public
no snmp-server enable traps

here is the non-response:

and the mrtg.cfg remain almost empty.
Now I'm wondering
is there something wrong in the syntax i used to launch cfgmaker or the
problem(s) resides on the pix (the snmp server)?
The interface to monitor is my default gw directly connected.
Any help will be appriciated
thanks in advance
