Does SNMP work from the base snmpwalk command?

Code: Select all

snmpwalk -v 2c -c 'yourcommunity' X.X.X.X system
Or for V3:

Code: Select all

snmpwalk -v3 -u snmpv3user -A 'authP@ss' -a SHA -X 'privP@ss' -x AES -l authPriv X.X.X.X system

Did those commands work?

What do you mean by SNMP string configuration? Are you asking how to setup SNMP on SUSE Linux?

Hello

We have configured SNMP v2 setup one of the suse linux server that's working fine as expected and other server's not working we followed the same steps .the only difference is ip address .

When i checked SNMP walk command i am getting below error

snmpwalk -v 2c -c 'Community' XXXX system
Timeout: No Response from XXXX

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_snmp_storage_wizard.pl -H XXXXX -C Community --v2c -m "^/$" -w 80 -c 95 -f

ERROR: Description/Type table : No response from remote host "XXXX".

Please help us to resolve this issue and let me know is there any way to configure the SNMP v3 setup on suse

To try to troubleshoot why you can't seem to connect, can you try this?

Code: Select all

  nmap -P0 -v -sU -p 161 -oA snmp_scan X.X.X.X
and post the results?

Also, you can ping the machine, and get to its other services (ssh, for example) from your nagios server?
