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 command: snmpwalk -v2c -c public localhost F5-BIGIP-LOCAL-MIB::ltmPoolStatusAvailState.\"/Common/Pool1\" Returned: F5-BIGIP-LOCAL-MIB::ltmPoolStatusAvailState."/Common/Pool1" = INTEGER: green(1) Now to test without the MIB: snmpwalk -v2c -c public localhost 1.3.6.1.4.1.3375.2.2.5.5.2.1.2.\"/Common/Pool1\" Returned: F5-BIGIP-LOCAL-MIB::ltmPoolStatusAvailState."/Common/Pool1" = INTEGER: green(1) However, if I SNMP walk the device outside of the F5 with Nagios or Solarwinds SNMP walk tool 1.3.6.1.4.1.3375.2.2.5.5.2.1.2.\"/Common/Pool1\" neither program returns anything. Is there a better way to probe it outside the F5 without converting "/Common/Pool1" to an OID/decimal format?Solved1.3KViews0likes7CommentsAutomated Nagios monitoring for F5 BigIP devices
Problem this snippet solves: Complete Nagios solution for automated monitoring of F5 BigIP using API & SNMP in Ruby. Generates Nagios config automatically.
