check_snmp_arp

[lamin]

Hey guys,
I am trying to run check_snmp_arp to watch some swithes. However, i got some data in the command line and no data in nagios wweb interface. See attachment.

Lets edit your check command as follows:

Code: Select all

$USER1$/check_snmp_arp.pl -H $ARG1$ -C $ARG2$ -w $ARG3$ -c $ARG4$

Now in the service management for this service set:
$ARG1$=10.0.0.28
$ARG2$=public
$ARG3$=600
$ARG4$=800

Additionally, this plugin (not created by Nagios staff) didn't have any check to see if it was unable to connect and even if it couldn't connect to the server it would report:

Code: Select all

Status is OK. Arp enries in memory: 0 |arp=0

I modified the original and have attached it if you would like to try it.

i followed your recommendation however, i still got some errors. se attachment

lets go back to the original file (attached) but leave the other settings like they are

I got it working but i hard-code the variables (hostaddress, public string etc...) in the command definition because i kept getting some error. I guess that the code was not very well tested by the owner.

Thanks

I think you are right. I'm glad hear you got it working.
