Nagios Support Forum

Thanks. That doc helped a lot. Now if I cause one switch to be unreachable it does not affect other switches.

Or are you stating to use the following in the NRDS configuration? Create only one NRDS configuration? command[Check SNMP Load]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_snmp_load.pl -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -C $ARG1$ -w $ARG2$ -c $ARG3$ -T netsl -f command[Check SNMP Memory]=/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_snmp_mem_...

Thanks. These are MRV Ethernet switches.

So you are saying do not use NRDS and just use the scripts in /usr/local/nagios/libexec?

I am not sure how to add them to xi, so I will check it out. Is there any document or video that explains how to set it up?

Yes. That is how I added the 2 switches, but my boss also wants to monitor load and memory. That is why I used the NRDS.

I was using NRDS because it was one of the videos I watched and assume that is what was needed to do for this to work. If there is a another way of doing this that works better I am open.

I am trying to monitor Ethernet switches. I would like to gather those stats and generate reports for this network simulation network we are building. In Views->Service Details where it shows the status of the devices is nice, as you can see it is misleading. If I cause one device to be unreachable,...

I do not understand. The other device check should not be affected by the other host being unreachable. They are different IP addresses. Like I stated before it seems that Check Load and Check Memory are returning the same values for both devices. If I add another device it will show the same results.

If I pull the cable on Core2_11_Even which is 192.168.58.11, it shows it is not reachable which is what I expect. I do not expect the Core1_10_Odd (192.168.58.10) to show an error in Check Memory. If I run nmap -d command it works on 192.168.58.10, but fails on 192.168.58.11. The nmap command works ...

I did not setup snmp traps. I assumed that if you cannot reach one device, it would not affect other service details for other devices.

Here is the latest.
