Betreff: [Nagios-users] Snmp - How do you use yours?

Hi all,

I've decided to add snmp monitoring to my nagios setup. I'd like to know what you guys and gals are monitoring using snmp out there.

It seemed like a lot of work to get in to, but I think this was just the effort of trying to piece together the "documentation" for net-snmp to figure out how to use it.

I am at the begining of working with SNMP and have very little idea how I can 
help my self.

So, now I have an idea and have snmpwalked my agent, I'm left with a big long list of OIDs that I'm not sure are very

What is an OID?

useful. Ok, all the tutorials show uptime, which is the agent uptime rather than the system uptime but in a few months when the servers are rebooted hopefully this will be the same. So what else can I do with it?

Can I extend it to export an OID for some test that runs locally on the system?

I need help and ideas please?


Thanks
