Mutiple IP addresses

You may want to use snmp to check the status of each interface.  Either snmpget in a script or the check_snmp plugin.

This is a paste from Cisco's MIB browser... even if your hosts aren't Cisco, this OID should still work.  You may find some others of interest in there, too.  http://www.cisco.com/pcgi-bin/Support/Mibbrowser/unity.pl?o=&t=yes


      Object ifOperStatus 
      OID 1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.8 
      Type INTEGER 
      Permission read-only 
      Status current 
      Values 1 : up
      2 : down
      3 : testing
      4 : unknown
      5 : dormant
      6 : notPresent
      7 : lowerLayerDown
     
      MIB IF-MIB;   -   View supporting images  
      Description The current operational state of the interface. The
      testing(3) state indicates that no operational packets
      can be passed. If ifAdminStatus is down(2) then
      ifOperStatus should be down(2). If ifAdminStatus is
      changed to up(1) then ifOperStatus should change to
      up(1) if the interface is ready to transmit and
      receive network traffic; it should change to
      dormant(5) if the interface is waiting for external
      actions (such as a serial line waiting for an incoming
      connection); it should remain in the down(2) state if
      and only if there is a fault that prevents it from
      going to the up(1) state; it should remain in the
      notPresent(6) state if the interface has missing
      (typically, hardware) components.

  Hello list,

              Does anyone have any advice on monitoring a Host with two IP address on two separate interfaces?  Routers with IP Numbered Serial Interfaces on WAN Links.

   

  Thanks
