[mrtg] Need help resolving mrtg error message.

[Mersberger, Robert]

I have 8 Proliant Bl P-class c_Gbe2 Interconnect switches in my network
that I am polling with Mrtg and I am having problems with 2 of these
switches. I wet the following error message from MRTG ( not all the time
but at random times during the day)

SNMP Error:

I have not beem able to determing why this is happening and just on
these two switches.  I have verified configurations, checked and change
communith string. rebuilt the mrtg cfg files but not of this seems to
help.

So trying every thing I know I turn to you and hope you can provide
assistance and/or guidance.

My next step after you would be to go back to the switch vendor looking
a a possible hardware/software problem.
