Errors, I would say yes; collisions, maybe. ifInErrors and ifOutErrors is pretty standard SNMP. If you install an snmp daemon on the hosts, you should be able to query those with the same plugin you're using for the routers. Here's an example of a few snmp walks -- $ snmpwalk -v2c -c <community> prodlnx01 ifdescr IF-MIB::ifDescr.1 = STRING: lo IF-MIB::ifDescr.2 = STRING: eth0 IF-MIB::ifDescr.3 = STRING: eth1 $ snmpwalk -v2c -c <community> prodlnx01 ifinerrors IF-MIB::ifInErrors.1 = Counter32: 0 IF-MIB::ifInErrors.2 = Counter32: 0 IF-MIB::ifInErrors.3 = Counter32: 0 $ snmpwalk -v2c -c <community> prodlnx01 ifouterrors IF-MIB::ifOutErrors.1 = Counter32: 0 IF-MIB::ifOutErrors.2 = Counter32: 0 IF-MIB::ifOutErrors.3 = Counter32: 0 As far as collisions, a quick grep of snmpwalk output of the entire tree doesn't show anything that looks like collisions being reported. It might use a different name so all I can really say on that on is TAFO. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Nagios-users mailing list Nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null
