Checking Cisco Port States plugin for nagios

[Giles Coochey]

Do this via SNMP

 

If your switch/router implements the BRIDGE-MIB, you can use the
"dot1dStpPortState" object. See the dot1StpPortTable for more details.

 

Then look for check_snmp and implement monitoring of that OID,
"check_snmp -help" should get you started.

 

This is one way, depending on your requirements you might be better off
using a SNMP Trap Receiver and configuring your switch to send traps for
STP topology changes... far less work on the nagios host, and more
timely reporting of changes.
