Nagios Support Forum

Hi,

We have a backup software Commvault and we would like to send traps to Nagios for centralized monitoring.

We enabled firewall port between them and added MIB files but we didnt see traps coming.

Then we added engineID and password to the snmptrapd configuration file something like this.

createUser -e 0x80001f8xxxxxxxxx username SHA "password" AES "password"
userlog,execute user

Engine id has fixed number of digits??

But in commvault we can see many authentication mechanism as below.

Authentication algorithm
HMAC MD5
HMAC SHA
HMAC128 SHA224
HMAC192 SHA256
HMAC256 SHA384
HMAC384 SHA512

privacy algorithm
CBC DES
CFB128 AES 128
CBC AES 128

Let us know how we can define the configuration and we want to use SNMPv3.

Thanks.
