snmp mib checks

[JohnFLi]

I have a RoomAlert 3E and NagiosXI
I uploaded the MIBS for that device.
I want to have Nagios alert for temperature, and another one of it's sensors to alert on a open, or closed sensor reading.

But I have no idea how to do this.

Any guides that could help?

Under Configure -> Monitoring Wizard, there is the SNMP Walk Wizard that should help you discover the available OIDs on the sensor. Run that against the device and take a look at the returned listings. The short names should give an indication as to the function.

I get this message "No results were returned from a scan of the device."

I check logging on the device and I dont see that nagios is even trying

Lets just force a walk right from the cli:
V1:

Code: Select all

snmpwalk -v1 -c <community> <device ip>

V2c:

Code: Select all

snmpwalk -v2c -c <community> <device ip>

[JohnFLi]

the results from teh cli says

[root@localhost snmp]# snmpwalk -v1 -c public 10.100.3.131
Timeout: No Response from 10.100.3.131

but on the log file for the device, I see that it did get some action from Nagios.

02/06/36 22:33:15: SNMP Request
From 10.100.5.65 Community: public
SNMP Connection ALLOWED

That ip address is the nagios machine

[tmcdonald]

Did you try it with version 2 as well?

[JohnFLi]

I get teh same responce with v2

[tmcdonald]

Does the remote sensor have some sort of access control list in place that would block responses back to the Nagios machine? Or perhaps a firewall in-between the two?

[JohnFLi]

I have teh ip address of the Nagios machine in the devices list to send traps to.
and teh devices log shows that nagios did get to it, it sorta looks like the response isn't getting to nagios

[JohnFLi]

Ok, I gave up on that device, I have another RoomAlert device I need to check. The snmp walk does work just fine.

I see many,many entries....

Now what do I do?
