m using the below command for monitoring

check_xi_service_ifoperstatus!public!4!-v 2 -p 161

Can you provide us with a little bit more information? What are the issues that you observed with current configuration? What is the output of the check that you expect to see vs the output you actually see?

I have NIC bonding for eth0,1,2,3 below is the device status which shows that there is trafic at the ports but still i have alert for NIC

COMMAND: /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_ifoperstatus -H hcrbt1 -C public -k 6 -v 2 -p 161
OUTPUT: OK: Interface eth0 (index 6) is up.

How can i identify the value of k in the check command for the interface ??

Run the snmpwalk command against that host and it should show you the index number in it's output.

Code: Select all

snmpwalk hcrbt1 -c public -v 2c |grep bond0

[root@nagiosxi ~]# snmpwalk hcrbt1 -c public -v 2c |grep bond0
IF-MIB::ifDescr.9 = STRING: bond0
Timeout: No Response from hcrbt1
Can you suggest how can i fix this.
Let me know if i can disable this from populating on the operation center as after acknowledgement as well it is there on operation center.

[tgriep]

The snmpwalk did run and return the index number of 9 that that you would use in the check_ifoperstatus command -f option.
Try that and it should work for you.

I am using the below command :
./check_ifoperstatus -H hnrbt1 -C public -k 6 -v 2 -p 161
issue was resolved as i changed the value of -k n as form output of snmpwalk
[root@nagiosxi libexec]# snmpwalk hcrbt1 -c public -v 2c |grep eth0
IF-MIB::ifDescr.2 = STRING: eth0

Where n=2

Is this above logic correct.

[tgriep]

Yes, the logic is correct. You can use the snmpwalk command to find the Index number and use that in the -k option.
Another way is to run the Network Switch / Router Wizard against that device and it should pick up the interfaces and set them up for you to be monitored on the system without manually creating the checks.

The error you are receiving is caused by SNMP on the remote machine not responding, at least not in time. This can be caused by any of the following

• IP routing problem
  Firewall Problem
  SNMP not responding in a timely fasion
  Incorrect SNMP community string
  UDP packets being blocked or dropped

If it is a timeout, you can change the command to wait longer but this is not likely the case as the default is 15 seconds, however you can add the following to the command to up it to 30 seconds

Code: Select all

-t 30
