SNMP Pools

I'm trying to probe the status of a pool via SNMP and not translating the whole pool name into an OID as doing that for each and every pool is not efficient. On the F5 I can run the following comma...
application delivery
LTM
nagios
oid
pool status
snmp
snmp walk

    Greetings,

    Did you allow access to the snmpv2c agent?

     

    tmsh modify sys snmp snmpv2c { allowed-addresses add { 10.10.10.0/24 }

tmsh list sys snmp snmpv2c allowed-addresses
sys snmp {
    allowed-addresses { 127.0.0.0/8 10.12.23.0/24 10.10.10.0/24 }
    snmpv2c {
}

Ok that is good info, thanks Kevin.

 

I wasn't sure if \"/Common/Pool1\" part actually required the MIB or not. I was trying to cut off the MIB requirement by doing:

1.3.6.1.4.1.3375.2.2.5.5.2.1.2.\"/Common/Pool1\" Of course the SolarWinds SNMP walk tool isn't using the MIB and my installation of Nagios is having issues using the MIB. I will push forward trying to get that fixed first before moving forward.

 

I'll update this if this solves my issue. Thanks again!
