SNMP¹

SNMP¹ is an SNMPv2c monitoring application for Cisco Routers and Switches. It gives you near realtime updates for system CPU, memory and interface utilization. This app is important if you need to know what your Cisco Router or Switch is doing. Enterprise monitoring apps can only offer you 2 to 5 minute intervals for statistic updates. While these apps do offer historical and trend analysis, SNMP¹ will augment your monitoring portfolio by monitoring a critical device near realtime. SNMP¹, or SNMP to the power of one, will let you monitor one Cisco router or switch at a time. This will focus a network administrators attention to that target system. **Please be aware of your network policies prior to purchase** Requirements: -SNMP UDP/161 access to the target Cisco router or switch -SNMP ReadOnly access Security considerations: -SNMP ReadOnly access on the target Cisco router or switch Example Basic Cisco IOS config: access-list 50 permit 10.1.20.0 0.0.0.255 ! snmp-server community [communityString] RO 50 snmp-server ifindex persist ...or the following example would restrict ReadOnly access to required MIBs: access-list 50 permit 10.1.20.0 0.0.0.255 ! snmp-server view NETADMINAPP system.2.0 included snmp-server view NETADMINAPP sysUpTime.0 included snmp-server view NETADMINAPP system.5.0 included snmp-server view NETADMINAPP ifNumber.0 included snmp-server view NETADMINAPP ifIndex.* included snmp-server view NETADMINAPP ifDescr.* included snmp-server view NETADMINAPP ifMtu.* included snmp-server view NETADMINAPP ifSpeed.* included snmp-server view NETADMINAPP ifAdminStatus.* included snmp-server view NETADMINAPP ifOperStatus.* included snmp-server view NETADMINAPP ifLastChange.* included snmp-server view NETADMINAPP lsystem.2.0 included snmp-server view NETADMINAPP lifEntry.6.* included snmp-server view NETADMINAPP lifEntry.8.* included snmp-server view NETADMINAPP lifEntry.28.* included snmp-server view NETADMINAPP ccmHistoryRunningLastChanged.0 included snmp-server view NETADMINAPP ccmHistoryStartupLastChanged.0 included snmp-server view NETADMINAPP cpmCPUTotalTable.* included snmp-server view NETADMINAPP ciscoMemoryPoolEntry.5.0 included snmp-server view NETADMINAPP ciscoMemoryPoolEntry.6.0 included snmp-server community [communityString] view NETADMINAPP RO 50 snmp ifmib ifindex persist
