missed our point - that counter may have a value that is 0 as seen through the
IOS, relative to the time the router knows that counter was reset, but the value
of the counter is most likely not 0. it doesn't reset the value to 0 at a
counter reset, it resets the time.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<P>For the type of devices I'm looking to monitor(cisco routers, w/ gig &
fast e) there should be NO errors. If there's a value other than 0 we've
got problems... :)

goodness. someone else mentioned the specific OIDs for interface error
counters and how you have to run a trend on those numbers to actually do
something with them.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

an upper limit of four billion and just keep counting until they roll over.
the cisco IOS interprets the number based on a time delta and then spits out
an error rate. you can't really walk the tree, because the counters aren't
absolute values.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

errors?<BR><BR></FONT></DIV>
<P>Ok, not the hardest part, I was looing for something that would be able
to walk the oid tree/interfaces looking for errors. I've got a lot of
interfaces on lots of routers, make a specific check_snmp request for each
oid is a lot of work.. :)
