SNMP Question

[tbishop]

I have read all 4 pages of posts but still am lost I am a REAL NOOBIE to Nagios and have installed it on CentOS 6.5 and am able to bring up the main Nagios Core screen with it working... What I do not understand is how to plug in this page:

I ran through SNMP Walk which I don't understand that well but I do get responses which I do understand and are
correct so I assume there will be no issues with port 161 etc... I've been through a lot of doc's and I just want to
know how I can plug this OID information into Nagios and yes how to do it Anyone who has who is willing
to share their config's on how to do this would much appreciate the assistance.

Thanks,
Tom B.

Well if you've used snmpwalk and found some oids that you wish to monitor. I would suggest trying check_snmp from the command line. Give it your host, community string, and OID to start with. Once you verify that you get a response that you are expecting, you can format -w and -c for warning and critical values, and use -l to rename the oid in the plugins output to something more human readable like "cpu load" or something similar. Try that out, and if you have trouble post what you tried and the responses received and we can work from there!
