[mrtg] Re: snmpget in a perl script

[tony bourke]

Hi Cliff,

#!/usr/local/bin/perl
#
$value = `snmpget -Ov localhost public .1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.10.1.5.1`;
chomp ($value);
print "$value\n";


The key there is to use -Ov, which sets the output to be terse.
Otherwise, $value will be:

enterprises.ucdavis.laTable.laEntry.laLoadInt.1 = 0

instead of just zero.

Hope that helps.

Tony
