List,

I have a bunch of Cisco routers I want to monitor with SNMP to see if they
have been reloaded. I want to get a notification when the uptime is less
than 30000 ticks (five minutes) which I check with oid 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.3.0
What I did with our old monitoring system is to check if the uptime value
was between 1 and 30000 ticks. The low value of 1 was specified because due
to the process-intense nature of SNMP you don't always get a reply from a
Cisco router, and if this low value was not specified it would raise an
alarm also in case no SNMP response was given (which was not what I wanted
of course).
With the range of values you can specify in Whatsup Gold you can basically
do the opposite; if I define 1 and 30000 as low and high values, the router
turns red when the uptime is > 5 minutes.
I'm pretty sure there's a workaround for this; anyone else monitoring
uptime with SNMP?

Thanks,

Philip
