check_snmp syntax issue

[Dylan Bouterse]

I guess you have a different check_snmp version than I do because I was not showing a 2c option for the version. I will investigate that and see if that's my issue.

It looks like the -P switch will tell it which snmp version to use.  again, '-h' helps  =)
 
-P, --protocol=[1|2c|3]
    SNMP protocol version

That may do it, but I can't get the host to respond using the check_snmp plugin. I think it may be a version mismatch. It seems the check_snmp plugin only supports SNMP v1 and v3, but not v2c. I cannot snmpget my device with v1 or v3.

I think the:  --string='SYNC OK'   option would do it.  Try doing a '-h' on check_snmp to see all the options.

I am trying to get check_snmp working to alert when my GPS sync stops
working on one of my devices. I can execute the snmpget command to get
the string but I'm having no luck in configuring a check_snmp syntax to
return values.


[root at ns1 cfg]# snmpget -v 2c -c community 1.1.20.3
1.3.6.1.4.1.161.19.3.4.4.13.0
SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.161.19.3.4.4.13.0 = STRING: "SYNC OK"
[root at ns1 cfg]# snmpget -v 2c -c community 1.1.21.3
1.3.6.1.4.1.161.19.3.4.4.13.0
SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.161.19.3.4.4.13.0 = STRING: "No SYNC"

How would I write the check_snmp command to show OK when "SYNC OK" and
alert critical when the "No SYNC" value is returned?
