Hi Subhendu,

Appologies for the silly question but what do you mean add a -m?

when i run:
./check_snmp -H 10.30.129.30 -o .1.3.6.1.4.1.2012.1.1.1.4.2.0 -w 80 -c 85 -C 
public -v -m
i get ./check_snmp: option requires an argument -- m

how do i find out what the miblist is????

WHEN I RUN:
./check_snmp -H 10.30.129.30 -o .1.3.6.1.4.1.2012.1.1.1.4.2.0 -w 80 -c 85 -C 
public -v

i get:
/usr/bin/snmpget -t 1 -r 5 -m ALL -v 1 -c public 10.30.129.30:161  
.1.3.6.1.4.1.2012.1.1.1.4.2.0
SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.2012.1.1.1.4.2.0 = INTEGER: 69

SNMP WARNING - 69


NOTE if it is of any use, there is a line space between SNMP WARNING - 69 
and INTEGER 69
