Cisco CPU/MEM monitoring
Posted: Mon Sep 08, 2025 1:59 pm
Running NagiosXI 2024R2.1 in Azure cloud. Having issues with getting cpu/mem data from my switches. Router/Switch wizard gives me ping and Interface status/utilization but does not provide CPU or Mem utilization the I can see. i have tried several plugins for snmpv3 (and just to test I also configured a snmpv2c test which completely failed
) including:
check_snmp_load.pl
check_cisco_status.pl
check_snmp_load_wizard.pl
For check_snmp_load.pl this was my config:
-H x.x.x.x -l snmpuser -x <authpass> -X <privpass> -l md5,aes -w 75 -c 90 -T cata -t 30
I have configured the command against each of these plugins and I run the check on the command all I get back is "3 warnings and a critical" as a response. At this point I am not sure what I can do next. Is anyone currently monitoring CPU/MEM usage on Cisco switches using NagiosXI and would you care to share your process.
TIA
Bill
