Line-Monitoring with check_snmp on Ciscos ....

[Luis Duarte]

Nagios reports OK because the plugin returns OK!
What you need to do is something like this:

command_line    $USER1$/check_snmp -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -o $ARG1$ -C $ARG2$ -r
up

the '-r up' is the key, it will return OK if it will find the string "up"
in the response and CRITICAL otherwise.
check all options with 'check_snmp -h'.

Cordialmente,

Luis Filipe Duarte

Hoi ...

a happy new year to everyone ...

Just a question, I want to check the lines on our ciscos and I thought,
this will do it:

# 'check_snmp' command definition
define command{
        command_name    check_snmp_Line
        command_line    $USER1$/check_snmp -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -o $ARG1$ -C
$ARG2$
        }

This checks our line and gives "snmp ok - up (1)" back, if it is up, and
"snmp ok - down (0)", if it is down.
The problem is, that nagios shows the checks in both time as ok/green.

What is the way, to get down-notifications, if the line is down?


           Thnx and regards
                                          Jan
