I'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?

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
#
[code]....
10.5.32.202 is my management host ... is this config ok ? But it seems that trap2sink is for v2 ? How does it work ?

View 1 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.

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 change the interfaces file to activate the DHCP service for my eth0.
How do I make the service active without booting the system. In other word, how do I run the modified interfaces file?
Every time I do a fresh install, there are a number of manual config things to change. One of them is to modify /etc/hosts to add the local IP addresses to a computer name.Can this be done via the Ubuntu networking somehow ? It would be nice not to have to change some of these config files.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am writing a program which modifies source IP address of packet before writing this packet to tap interface. I face only one problem with tcp checksum. I have current checksum, to get new checksum, I add new source IP address and add one complement of old source IP address. That is, I update checksum with difference of old and new source IP address. It sounds not bad but does not work.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a question about bonded NICs and the switches they are connected to.
I have a server which needs to send a lot of data to another server quickly. Both have multiple GbE NICs. I understand what is required at the server end (I think) in that a pseudo-interface is created such as bond0 with the IP applied to that interface rather than eth0 and eth1.
My question relates to the connection between the servers, i.e. the switch. Is a specific type of switch required for this to work, as an IP will have 2 (or more) MAC addresses associated with it, or how does the switch decide to which port to route the traffic for the bond0 IP?
Also, will this only work when multiple connections are being made? What I mean is, will each individual TCP connection only use either the physical eth0 OR the physical eth1 interface, or can a single connection make use of the aggregated bandwidth, sending one packet to one physical interface and another to the other physical interface, using the bond0 IP as the destination?
What I am trying to work out is if I had a storage server connected to an application server and exporting storage using NFS or GlusterFS, would an aggregated link improve throughput?
I'm configuring Nagios at the moment, but I'm doubting my approach to transparent switches a bit. It seems from reading the documentation that Nagios wants me to ignore transparent switches, although I also doubt this interpretation of mine.
A little example, a VPN:
Code:
demarcation point
|
[router]
/
[switch][switch]
| / |
[7 clients] [switch] [switch]
/ |
[6 clients] [4 clients] [5 clients]
As you can see, there are 22 clients connected to the router. Since switches don't have an address, they cannot be measured. But if I ignore the switches, the schema is an oversimplified picture of reality. So what I'm looking for is a way to display the switches, even though they don't have an address. What I did was, I created the switches as where they proper fully featured ones, and listening to 127.0.0.1 as address. Luckily, this tricked Nagios. And it works, but it's not very elegant. Is there a better way to approach this pseudo-problem? Perhaps a build-in I overlooked?
I have 2 cisco sw 3500xl series working properly forwarding traffic. All operations are Layer 2. I have setup keep alive 10 on all the ports. They are connected to another sw together with a Linux router on Cent OS 5.2. I can't ping the switches from the Linux box. If I arping them, I get a response and after that they are accessible for telnet. Otherwise they are not. After 5min the macs are flushed from the arp table of the Linux box, and then again they are not accessible only if I arping them, or set a static mac.
View 1 Replies View Relatedwhat I have: Belkin G Wireless Router Model F5D7234-4. To attempt to get Subsonic working, I changed the port forwarding settings (Belkin calls it Virtual Servers) to forward port 4040 to my desktop computer. I then saved changes, and my wireless disconnected. I waited about 3 minutes, and nothing was happening, so I restarted my router. This left me in the position that I am in now. Even when the router and modem are fully booted, the router does not broadcast my SSID. In addition, a wired connection will not connect to the network through the router. This leaves me completely unable to use wireless, and unable to change any settings in the router.

how to make mib file for snmp....
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have enabled SNMP monitoring in my debian box (using apt-get install snmp) and configured it to allow my PC to query the server.
I'm able to query the server and get SNMP data but when I get STG to give me a per/second graph of the interface octets, it only updates the data every 12 seconds or so.
Is this a setting in SNMP which could be causing this problem? If so, how can I enable it so that SNMP can give me up to the second octet rates.
2 machines (one of them working as a server to monitor the network with IP 192.168.100.110 and the other one to be monitored with IP address 192.168.100.1):
In the first machine:
snmpwalk -v1 localhost -c public sysName (working fine)
snmpwalk -v1 192.168.100.1 -c public sysName (don't works -> Timeout: No Response from 192.168.100.1)
In the monitored machine:
snmpwalk -v1 192.168.100.110 -c public sysName (it works)
snmpwalk -v1 localhost -c public sysName (dont works -> Timeout: No Response from localhost)

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to monitor a Centos 5.3 box using SNMP and I am having a lot of trouble getting the data that i need from it. Everytime I try to get information from the UCD-SNMP MIB it returns "End of MIB". It is my understanding that UCD-SNMP is a standard package when Net-SNMP is installed and should always be there. Then why can't I access it? I have tried removing the reinstalling Net-SNMP, but that hasn't worked. My server is update date on all it's patches as well. It is quite old hardware, but I don't believe that should affect SNMP from being gathered. Iptables is down, and I cant' even get it from the local machine.
