I need to be able to send snmp traps based on certain severity or content of syslog messages. Can this be done from standard linux? Alternatively, are there MIB's out there that support syslog events so I can get the status from snmp?

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a favor to ask, I've been having a really hard time trying to understand how snmp traps work, what can they do for you, and why they are useful. I've done some research and I've even set up snmp clients on linux systems, not necessarily the traps. I know they communicate on port 161 and 162 and I also know that you set them up to connect to a community string. Still I cant grasp the concept. If you don't mind can any one break it down for me, in very basic terms.

What is that supposed to mean?
I have an issue when sending snmp traps. I have an embedded system connected to a SNMP manager. I am sending traps from the box to the manager continuosly. After sometime I don't see any trpas coming out.
I get this error message.
Cannot open file /proc/net/tcp ...
: Too many open files
Cannot open file /proc/net/snmp ...
: Too many open files
What could be the reason for such an error?
I have created this thread as it sis realy hard for me to send traps from my Linux workstation... I m lost with v1/v2/v3 snmp... So here is the initial configuration: (without traps)
rocommunity myrocom
rwcommunity MyL33tP4ss 10.5.32.202
rwcommunity MyL33tP4ss 127.0.0.1
syslocation "FR"
syscontact root
From there i can "poll" my system. But what should i do if i want my Linux system sending traps when disks are full or system overloaded etc...I have found information on Internet but not easily understandable It is for v3:
rwuser admin
createUser admin MD5 mypasword

# From there i would have to comment the lines regarding the communities

10.5.32.202 is my management host ... is this config ok ? But it seems that trap2sink is for v2 ? How does it work ?
how can I configure snmp to receive traps from diffé²¥nt machines??
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm curious as to what defines the SNMP trap info sent by switches? I would like to get updates on 802.1x authentication and state of switches (all manufacturers if possible). Is the data sent via traps determined by the manufacturer or is it possible to modify/select it from the switch MIB?
View 3 Replies View RelatedWe have a situation where we have to set up a server to send traps with information regarding CPU, memory usage, etc. I know snmpd can be set up to allow another process to request snmp information about the server, but can it be done the other way around (have a host send information about itself to another server through snmp)?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI just installed FC14 64 bit system and I am looking to setup a snmp trap server so I can send up/down traps from my router to it which in turn will email me though sendmail. I have installed "net-snmp-utils-5.5-21.fc14.x86_64" and "net-snmp-libs-5.5-21.fc14.x86_64" packages and have downloaded snmptt_1.3 but I don't have the command "snmptrapd". Is there another package I need for this? Could it just be x64 doesn't support it?
Here is some info off the box.

I am facing a problem while trying to log SSH messages in a separate file, say, /var/log/ssh_logs. I have tried modifying the syslog-ng.conf file as follows:
filter f_ssh { facility(auth, authpriv) and match("sshd[[0-9]+]:"); };
destination d_ssh { file ("/var/logs/sshd_logs"); };
log {
[code]....
But still I am not able to get the ssh logs in the new file. They continue to go to /var/log/auth.
I am looking to build a dedicated syslog-SNMP server with remote web interface and I would appreciate a discussion from our community on recommending the best solutions to deploy. I would like to be able to create an opensource architecture I could easily duplicate for multiple stand-alone customer environments.

Like : [sdb] Assuming drive cache: write through
This is really disturbing when a user is running the script. Is there anyway that I can direct all the messages to some other tty which I don't use.

View 3 Replies View RelatedGot a Ubuntu system. Have a device on my LAN that can send Syslog messages.
I would like to:
1. Capture these specific syslog messages.
2. Keep them separate from any other syslog activity on the Ubuntu system.
3. View these syslog messages later.
I have the following BIND messages filling up my SysLog that I'm hoping someone can explain to me:
Code:
Dec 9 09:35:44 dns2 named[30103]: client 67.130.224.5#49551: query (cache) 'www.domain.com/A/IN' denied
Dec 9 09:35:47 dns2 named[30103]: client 67.130.224.5#64561: query (cache) 'www.domain.com/A/IN' denied
[code].....
I would expect this behavior if "domain.com and anotherdomain.com" wasn't a domain that I hosted. But this is a valid domain that this server should be answering for. In my named.conf I do have the
Quote:
allow-query { any; };
option on every zone. This is my slave server and I have the primary shut off so I can test this slave server. FYI: So far queriers still seem to be working. The pages for the sites are still coming up via the internet.
I am facing an issue with my syslog server. The server is collecting remote log also. and the issue is no log messages are updated in /var/log/messages file. But other files are getting updated.
[root@Server1 ~]# cat /etc/syslog.conf
# Log all kernel messages to the console.
# Logging much else clutters up the screen.

Can any one tell me a network monitoring tool which can monitor remote connectivity and generate a comprehensive report about the link state like up/down, error timings, increase in latency and packet loss rate.
View 3 Replies View RelatedOn this Ubuntu 8.04.4 LTS server, I want to log the messages from a Linksys router. So I made this change to "/etc/init.d/sysklogd" SYSLOGD="-r" Then in "/etc/syslog.conf" I added the following to the top of the file: Code: if $fromhost isequal 'Linksys' then /var/log/Linksys.log & ~
Then I rebooted the server. But there is no "/var/log/Linksys.log" file.
I have my system set up to where the router(dd-wrt) will send it's syslog messages to my Linux PC system. I am using shorewall as my firewall. I have two questions: How can I configure shorewall to allow the messages from my router? If I use my router IP address to allow the messages to come through the firewall, will this be a great security risk as anything from the internet can come through on that router ipaddress?
View 1 Replies View RelatedRHEL 5.4 i want to be able to do redistribution of inbound syslog messages to syslogd. as example, my syslog.conf has in it at the end:
*.* @192.168.5.5
*.* @192.168.5.6
my sysconfig/syslog file has "-r" as the only option for syslogd. any messages generated by the localhost will be sent to the two remote servers, but messages that come into this box (udp 514) only get logged locally and do not get sent out to the remote hosts.
you may ask why do i want to do this. because i have several syslog servers (for security purposes) and many of my net devices are configured to send syslog to all the syslog servers, hence each device is sending way too much duplicate udp-514. so i would like to minimize the udp-514 coming out of the devices, have all devices send to a central syslog server, and then central syslog server do distribution to the other syslog servers. others have also called this "syslog proxy". or, if not with syslogd, how to achieve this (preserving the original syslog message host info, etc)?
I'm getting 10000000's of syslog messages :
"eth0: PHY reset until link up"
- I have wireless and don't normally use an ethernet cable. From Googling round I found this bug report https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...ux/+bug/270184 which appears to match the problem, however I do not feel happy/competent enough to recompile the driver as suggested in the bug fix. Is there a way to configure the driver so that it only tries the eth0 connection a limited number of times? This is Ubuntu 8.04 2.4.26-27 and SIS 191 chipset
I've just configured my Linksys RVS-4000 router to syslog messages to remote syslogd server (i.e. my CentOS5 machine). Redirecting messages was easy, but now I'm having difficulties to redirect those same messages received from Linksys to a separate log file. By default, all these messages are logged to /var/log/messages, and after browsing manual pages for syslog, syslog.conf, and syslogd, came to suspect that what I want isn't possible.
