Hi all,

I know this is probably the wrong place to post this, but it does pertain to 
Nagios.

I encountered a problem while using snmp4nagios. the program is supposed to 
report admin=up/oper=down as a critical error. i was testing this by unplugging 
the fiber from a host on the switch. when i do this, the check_brocade_port 
program was generating a WARNING, saying that the admin status as down. it 
reports exactly the same message as when i administratively disable the same 
port.

curiously enough, logging on to the switch and running a switchshow displays 
the correct status. that is, not disabled and NO_LIGHT. That condition should 
report adminstatus=up and operstatus=down.

this seems to me to be an issue with brocade's snmp vs. the internals of the 
switch.

has anyone else encountered this issue and is there a way to get the switch to 
report the ifAdminStatus correctly?

thanks,
bill york
