adding switch access credential inside Nagios switch.cfg

Post by balan919 »

Hi,

I need some advice on how to edit nagios switch.cfg file.
Currently I have configured Nagios 3x in Ubuntu Server(Ver 10). There is a switch.cfg script file which monitors around 50 Cisco Switches.
The problem is, these swictches have SNMP username/password account enabled before we can access them. So, how can I include this access credentials in the Switch.cfg script file?

Your feedback is highly appreciated.

Thank you.
Balan
