SNMP of FreeBSD
I'm running 8-Stable, and ports are current. I'm installing snmp support, mostly just to investigate it. I have three ports installed: bsnmptools-0.0.20060818_2 Snmp client tools mbrowse-0.3.1_8 An SNMP MIB Browser for X net-snmp-5.4.2.1_6 An extendable SNMP implementation I got a few errors after initial install. I don't know what pieces of snmp I want. I used the sample snmp.config from the /usr/src tree. I changed the name of the public community name. I uncommented the netgraph and pf lines and maybe even others 8o) I got rid of the errors on the console, except for this Warning: WARNING: attempt to domain_add(netgraph) after domainfinalize() Perhaps this is a bug in the example snmp.config I'm using? What client(s) tools should I look at? ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Personally, I use SNMP for read-only network gathering information. Depending on the device you are trying to poll, you can generally retrieve almost all information from a device. What you have described that you have already seems like SNMP. Can you give an example of a device that you want to 'test' against? Assuming that you have an SNMP v2 device available for polling, try this on your FreeBSD box: # pkg_add -r net-snmp # rehash # snmpwalk -v2c -c your_ro_community ip_or_name_of_device If you want specifics to test against, let me know off-list, and I'll give you a Cisco router to poll.

I use SNMP for network management, so I assumed that from the beginning. If what you are looking for is gathering stats from only the hardware that you are working on, that is a bit of a different story. With that said, I may be able to provide configs for that, too.

NAT+NET-SNMP Problem+FreeBSD-4.10
Hi, This is just a follow-up on my previous posting on my problem with snmp. My setup involves 1 DSL interface and 1 LAN interface in a FreeBSD-4.10 which is configured as gateway and NAT router. I haven't been able to query any SNMP data from this machine which acts as my DSL router. Was it a problem with NAT? -- -- Edwin D.

SNMP in FreeBSD server
Hi, I'm running a FreeBSD server on a DSL and I wan't to monitor the link utilization of it using MRTG and NET-SNMP. I installed net-snmp using ports but when I tried running snmpd and querying simple snmpwalk and cfgmaker, I got an error as shown below. I also tried installing net-snmp from source from sourceforge but still snmp is not responding. Please help me on this. Thanks in advance. -Edwin NOTE: - My snmpd.conf is in /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf I am running snmpd as plain 'snmpd'.
