Last update : Jan 15 2006 Commands Here are commands example to use my scripts with nagios. It's only the basic things you can do, check the help of every script if you need more advanced features especially if you need performance outputs. The command definitions are complete, but not the service definitions : you must add host name, contact groups, etc.... All these commands use $USER<n>$ macros to put snmp login. The reason for this is that the ressources.cfg file cannot be read by the CGI, preventing your "passwords" to be seen with the config. You must set the $USER7$ or $USER8$ to make these examples work. The $USER<n>$ macro are defined in the resources.cfg file SNMP login with $USER<n>$ About regular expressions Configuration examples of check_snmp_boostedge.pl check_snmp_cpfw.pl check_snmp_css.pl & check_snmp_css_main.pl check_snmp_env.pl check_snmp_linkproof_nhr.pl check_snmp_load.pl check_snmp_interface.pl check_snmp_mem.pl check_snmp_nsbox.pl check_snmp_process.pl check_snmp_storage.pl check_snmp_vrrp.pl check_snmp_win.pl Checks you can make by host type SNMP login For more information, you can have a look at information on snmp login If you are using snmp v1 : $USER7$=-C <community> If you are using snmp v2c : $USER7$=-C <community> -2 or you can use $USER9$ if you need both v1 and v2c. Examples of snmp v3 login : AuthNoPriv (md5) : $USER8$=-l <login> -x <pass> AuthPriv (md5,aes) : $USER8$=-l <login> -x <pass> -X <pass> -L md5,aes About regular expressions With all these scripts, when you select an interface, a service or process name etc... you use by default regular expresions : Note : you can disable this by using "-r" Examples : Don't forget it is perl regular expressions.
