check_snmp_cpfw - No answer from host

Post by staun »

Trying to use the check_snmp_cpfw against our Nokia IP 390 firewall, but I keep getting this error.

Code: Select all

[root@srv-nag-nsb1 libexec]# ./check_snmp_cpfw.pl -H 10.10.10.253 -C public -swa
No answer from host
or

Code: Select all

[root@srv-nag-nsb1 libexec]# ./check_snmp_cpfw.pl -H 10.10.10.253 -C public -sm
SVN : cannot find oids / MGMT : cannot find oids / CPFW Status : CRITICAL
SNMP is enabled on the firewall and other check_snmp scripts works fine e.g.

Code: Select all

[root@srv-nag-nsb1 libexec]# ./check_snmp_load.pl -H fw10 -C public -w 7 -c 50 -T nokia
CPU used 7.0% (<7) : OK
Any idea what could be the reason or what I may have forgotten since this script fails to get an answer from the host?

Not familiar with this plugin, but can you connect via snmp from the nagios machine with a standard snmpget ?

Code: Select all

snmpget -v2c -c public 10.10.10.253 sysUpTime.0

Hi Scott,

The snmpget seems to work fine as well

Code: Select all

[root@srv-nag-nsb1 ~]# snmpget -v2c -c public 10.10.10.253 sysUpTime.0

Then I would check with the author of that plugin as it wasn't produces by Nagios Enterprises...
