Sonicwall firewalls have bad snmp implementation. Sonic wall itself
seems to be aware of the issue as well. The lastest firmware release
6.4.2.0 may have some snmp issues solved in it but that's according
their press release that they have fixed the snmp bugs in this release.
I've not tested the firewall with new firmware yet, but I've test from
soho to pro-vx with different firmwares and none of them provides any
snmp data useable by MRTG.

-One answer... one question...
-
-There was a post on this list about the VPN subject a month or so back.
-I'd suggest searching the archives for "sonicwall and vpn". Not sure if
-there was a resolution or not.
-
-I'm curious what kind of Sonicwalls you have. There've been other
-discussions on this list and many of us were unable to get the LAN,
WAN,
-& DMZ stats from the Sonicwalls. I have the latest firmware on mine and
-have had no luck getting MRTG to graph it (I have graphs, but with no
-data). Any chance you could take a few minutes and give a quick how-to
-of how you got it working?
-
-Thanks,
-AD
