You may have v3 available on the device you are querying, but you need
to specify a lot more information to snmpwalk than you have.

(especially the table at about the middle of the page).

[root at localhost snmp]#

 

I tried check_ifstatus with -v 2  option and getting same message:

 

[root at localhost etc]# /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_ifstatus -H
localhost -v 2 -C public -I -u E1 6/0
CRITICAL: Requested table is empty or does not exist for
1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.8  with snmp version 2

I'll guess the message that "requested table is empty or does not exist
for 1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.8"  means that there is something that needs
configuring in snmp (???).  I am very green with snmp.

	Are you sure the device you are quering is using SNMP v1 ?
	most devices come with SNMP2 or even 3 , check the setting of
you snmp query and the snmp setting on 
	the device to see what version you need to use to check..
