Hello, I am fairly new to snmp and have a question regarding what is reported via MRTG as the speed of a device. The OS is Redhat 7.2 YES, I know it is old and would love to upgrade the OS but at this time I cannot. The original version of SNMP that was running was /usr/bin/snmpwalk -V UCD-snmp version: 4.2.1 The walk shows the speed of the device as being 10MB not 1000MB which is what it should be as we have 6 Intel Pro E1000 eth ports in the server.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /]# /usr/bin/snmpwalk -v 1 -c Mycommunity localhost interface |grep -i speed interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifSpeed.1 = Gauge32: 10000000 interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifSpeed.2 = Gauge32: 10000000 interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifSpeed.3 = Gauge32: 10000000 interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifSpeed.4 = Gauge32: 10000000 interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifSpeed.5 = Gauge32: 10000000 interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifSpeed.6 = Gauge32: 10000000 interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifSpeed.7 = Gauge32: 10000000 Not knowing for sure what to modify, I decided to try a newer version of net-snmp I have downloaded and compiled version 5.3.1 /usr/local/bin/snmpwalk -V NET-SNMP version: 5.3.1 /usr/local/bin/snmpwalk -v 1 -c Mycommunity localhost interface |grep -i speed IF-MIB::ifSpeed.1 = Gauge32: 10000000 IF-MIB::ifSpeed.2 = Gauge32: 10000000 IF-MIB::ifSpeed.3 = Gauge32: 10000000 IF-MIB::ifSpeed.4 = Gauge32: 10000000 IF-MIB::ifSpeed.5 = Gauge32: 10000000 IF-MIB::ifSpeed.6 = Gauge32: 10000000 IF-MIB::ifSpeed.7 = Gauge32: 10000000 The device still reports that the speed is 10000000 instead of 1000000000 at this point I wanted to see if the older version reported speeds correctly for another server I built up with 2 ethernet cards. one with a 100MB and one with a 1000 MB card. I ran the following and true to form the snmp version that came with rh7.2 reported the values correctly as did the newer version 5.3.1 V 4.2.1 [root /]# /usr/bin/snmpwalk -v 1 -c Mycommunity2 server2 interface |grep -i speed interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifSpeed.1 = Gauge32: 10000000 interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifSpeed.2 = Gauge32: 1000000000 interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifSpeed.3 = Gauge32: 100000000 V 5.3.1 [root /]# /usr/local/bin/snmpwalk -v 1 -c Mycommunity2 server2 interface |grep -i speed IF-MIB::ifSpeed.1 = Gauge32: 10000000 IF-MIB::ifSpeed.2 = Gauge32: 1000000000 IF-MIB::ifSpeed.3 = Gauge32: 100000000 Can anyone point me in the right direction to modify the server to report the correct speeds of the ethernet cards ? I know if I upgrade the OS on the Server that will do it, BUT as I said before that is not an option I can use at this time. Are there any changes I can make that would allow the snmpwalk / MRTG to report the correct speeds of the device ? I appreciate your time and look forward to your responses. -- With regards, RobertMCol ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
