Hi

I downloaded the plugin onto my nagios server , I executed a sample command but i have some questions on it:

The output goes like this:

[r...@pc-fedora-1 libexec]# ./check_snmp_int.pl -H x.x.x.x -C xxx -n eth0 -r -fY -k -w 100,100 -c 200,200 -d 40 eth0:UP (12.2KBps/20.6KBps):1 UP: OK | 'eth0_in_Bps'=12506;102400;204800;0;1250000 'eth0_out_Bps'=21068;102400;204800;0;1250000

As you can see the output has the following: eth0_in_Bps=12506;102400;204800;0;1250000

Could you explain what they indicate , i know of only "in Bytes per second" , what are the other 4 values ?
Is it something like "in Discards" , "in Errors"  Etc.

Can someone throw more light on this.

Thanks
Jatin

check_snmp_int is what you are looking for.
Take a look at the extensive parameterlist and you can check for most
anything you could think of.

It's on manubulons website, I don't have it handy - $SEARCHENGINE
is your friend.
