[mrtg] Re: oid's for Cisco and Sun servers

[Vasudeva Venkateshaiah]

Hi..

I got the Cisco MIB's and the SUN mibs form ucd-snmp. When I do the snmpget
and snmptable and snmpwalk commands on the equipments I need to monitor it
works just fine, with the mib names. When I include the OID's with the
community string i.e. the number notation, then I don't get any graph. The
graph is flat. This is for the Cisco routers.

For SUN servers, even the basic mrtg.cfg file output produces a flat graph.
For the snmp traffic to get to the monitoring server, it ahs to cross the
pix and I have all the conduits to allow the traffic, still it doesn't work.
The server which I want to monitor has a single NIC card with virtual
interfaces like zrl0, zrl0:1 ...etc. and with ip addresses say 172.30.0.1,
172.30.0.2, 172.30.0.3..etc. Is this a problem? Should I be able to monitor
traffic going out of all these subinterfaces separately ? Has anyone on the
list faced a problem like this? Any suggestions and comments , welcome.

Thanks
Vasudev.

For Cisco, you would need to be more specific as to what you want to
monitor. You can find the MIBs for most anything from the Cisco ftp site.
Let me know what you want to monitor and I should be able to point you in
the right direction.

As for SUN, take a look at net-snmp (formerly ucd-snmp) first
(http://net-snmp.sourceforge.net/). Then, look at
http://netophilia.net/linux-oids.html for a small sampling of what you can
monitor. This is a very small sampling, but should get you started (even
though these say linux OIDs, they have worked on SUN for me in the past).
