What are the most practical uses of snmpdelta tool? I guess one place this tool comes in handy is for example if one queries router firewall(Juniper router in this example) counter changes to the file and executes the snmpdelta command as a daemon in the background(&):
snmpdelta -v 2c -c public -Cs -Cp 2 -Cl 10.10.10.99 .1.3.6.1.4.1.2636.3.5.2.1.4.24.98.119.45.49.48.77.98.112.115.45.97.101.48.46.50.50.51.45.105.110.101.116.45.105.24.98.119.45.49.48.77.98.112.115.45.97.101.48.46.50.50.51.45.105.110.101.116.45.105.3 & ..which means that in case there is packet loss one can check the "10.10.10.99-SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.2636.3.5.2.1.4.24.98.119.45.49.48.77.98." file and check if and when policer has dropped something. I guess one could even set up rrdtools to ask information from this file and draw a graph based on it. The other user case would probably be the traffic interface counters. I mean in order to see the five minute average Cisco router interface inbound traffic one should execute: snmpdelta -v 2c -c public -Cs -Cp 300 192.168.1.254 IF-MIB::ifInOctets.10125 ..where 192.168.1.254 is the Cisco WS-C3560G-24TS switch. However, any other clever/interesting user cases? I discovered the snmpdelta tool today and it really seems to be useful :) regards, martin ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ BlackBerry® DevCon Americas, Oct. 18-20, San Francisco, CA http://p.sf.net/sfu/rim-devcon-copy2 _______________________________________________ Net-snmp-users mailing list Net-snmp-users@lists.sourceforge.net Please see the following page to unsubscribe or change other options: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/net-snmp-users
