Package: mrtg
Version: 2.16.3-3
Severity: normal
Thanks for maintaining MRTG
squeeze cfgmaker will not use IfAlias
I can reproduce the problem see in
https://lists.oetiker.ch/pipermail/mrtg/2011-March/036486.html
Here's a simplified to the minimum demonstration of the problem:
SNMP responses I don't want:
# snmpwalk -Oa -c public -v 1 switch-root | grep ifDescr
IF-MIB::ifDescr.1 = STRING: Slot: 0 Port: 1 Gigabit - Level
IF-MIB::ifDescr.2 = STRING: Slot: 0 Port: 2 Gigabit - Level
IF-MIB::ifDescr.3 = STRING: Slot: 0 Port: 3 Gigabit - Level
IF-MIB::ifDescr.4 = STRING: Slot: 0 Port: 4 Gigabit - Level
IF-MIB::ifDescr.5 = STRING: Slot: 0 Port: 5 Gigabit - Level
IF-MIB::ifDescr.6 = STRING: Slot: 0 Port: 6 Gigabit - Level
IF-MIB::ifDescr.7 = STRING: Slot: 0 Port: 7 Gigabit - Level
IF-MIB::ifDescr.8 = STRING: Slot: 0 Port: 8 Gigabit - Level
SNMP responses I do want:
# snmpwalk -Oa -c public -v 1 switch-root | grep ifAlias
IF-MIB::ifAlias.1 = STRING: switch-vince
IF-MIB::ifAlias.2 = STRING:
IF-MIB::ifAlias.3 = STRING:
IF-MIB::ifAlias.4 = STRING: switch-downstairs
IF-MIB::ifAlias.5 = STRING:
IF-MIB::ifAlias.6 = STRING:
IF-MIB::ifAlias.7 = STRING:
IF-MIB::ifAlias.8 = STRING: old-ethernet
What I'm using on Debian Squeeze:
# cfgmaker --version
cfgmaker for mrtg-2.16.3
Cfgmaker's idea of the "alias" doesn't match with snmpwalk's response:
# /usr/bin/cfgmaker --ifdesc=alias switch-root | grep Descr:
### Interface 1 >> Descr: 'Slot:-0-Port:-1-Gigabit---Level' | Name: '0/1' | Ip:
'' | Eth: '' ###
### Interface 2 >> Descr: 'Slot:-0-Port:-2-Gigabit---Level' | Name: '0/2' | Ip:
'' | Eth: '' ###
### Interface 3 >> Descr: 'Slot:-0-Port:-3-Gigabit---Level' | Name: '0/3' | Ip:
'' | Eth: '' ###
### Interface 4 >> Descr: 'Slot:-0-Port:-4-Gigabit---Level' | Name: '0/4' | Ip:
'' | Eth: '' ###
### Interface 5 >> Descr: 'Slot:-0-Port:-5-Gigabit---Level' | Name: '0/5' | Ip:
'' | Eth: '' ###
### Interface 6 >> Descr: 'Slot:-0-Port:-6-Gigabit---Level' | Name: '0/6' | Ip:
'' | Eth: '' ###
### Interface 7 >> Descr: 'Slot:-0-Port:-7-Gigabit---Level' | Name: '0/7' | Ip:
'' | Eth: '' ###
### Interface 8 >> Descr: 'Slot:-0-Port:-8-Gigabit---Level' | Name: '0/8' | Ip:
'' | Eth: '' ###
Seems to be no way to get cfgmaker to read the IF-MIB::ifAlias
instead of IF-MID::ifDescr. Discussion on the mailling list as
seen in the above link just kind of ... stopped, once it was
clear that cfgmaker is broken.
The problem seems to exist at least from 2.16.3 to 2.17.1, perhaps more.
