hey try this

 

 

snmpwalk -v2c -c public localhost .1.3.6.1.4.1.3375.2

 

 

will give you the lists of F5-BIGIP-SYSTEM-MIB:: then just grep out what you think is usefull. Then once you found it you can use this to translate it to OID

 

 

snmptranslate -On F5-BIGIP-SYSTEM-MIB::

 

 

e.g.

 

 

[Admin ] snmpwalk -v2c -c public localhost .1.3.6.1.4.1.3375.2

 

F5-BIGIP-SYSTEM-MIB::sysHostCpuUser.1

 

F5-BIGIP-SYSTEM-MIB::sysHostCpuSystem.1

 

F5-BIGIP-SYSTEM-MIB::sysHostCpuNice.1

 

 

now you want to get the OID for sysHostCpuSystem.1

 

[Admin ] snmptranslate -On F5-BIGIP-SYSTEM-MIB::sysHostCpuSystem.1

 

.1.3.6.1.4.1.3375.2.1.7.2.2.1.5.1

 

 

done! I noticed some of the OID's in the manual is different when you snmpwalk/get it
