Tobias -
One of the thoughts that I have had on the entire SNMP Polling process is the following. 1 - Possible to use SNMP-V3 for security 2 - Possible to use the Bulk read functions ? 3 - Possible to grab a whole set of OIDs rather than one at a time. Why ? If have seen that for some of the switches that I monitor that the SNMP processing to report the information takes a long time. This is true even if there is one interface to return or a set of interfaces. Using the bulk read would allow you to gather a whole set of read/write interfaces at the same time with one packet. Thus cutting down on the overhead as well as the impact on the switch to provide the information. Then the MRTG pm could decode these and call RRD to update the tables with the interfaces without having to go back to the switch. Thoughts ?
