NagiosXI Multiple SNMP Traps 1 Host

[mlopez]

Hi All,
I'm currently in the process of testing Nagios to replace a previous monitoring system and wondering if you would be able to answer a couple of questions.

Our environment is only passive snmp traps with over 1,000 hosts and 45 SNMP Trap OID's per. The issue I'm encountering when adding the Passive SNMP Trap service is that I am only able to see 1 SNMP trap "the latest" per host on the GUI unless I go in the host history.

This creates an issue as I would like my groups to be able to acknowledge and work off the alerts from Nagios instead of using e-mail and thus the reason I picked Nagios.


I read about adding 1 service per OID and wondering how I could accomplish this.


Sincerely,
Michael

You would want to edit your /etc/snmp/snmptt.conf

Changing the EXEC line for the OID's you want to have different service names, you would change

Code: Select all

"SNMP Traps"

to something like

Code: Select all

"SNMP Traps - OID.1.3.6.1.2.1.17.0.1"
