Please do not apply windows procedures in a unix environment. Work the
problem. Solve it step by step. Pay attention to the exact responses and
the exact commands.

 1. Can you run access the router with SNMP at all? Test with snmpwalk.
(Known obstacles: firewalls, community strings ,....)

 2. Can you run the plugin by hand? Test all the options you want to use
in nagios manualy first. Make sure you test this sucesfully as the user
that the nagios process runs as.

 3. Now try to build the most simple service definition and try within
Nagios.

If you have further question please document your attempts and show
which steps you have taken.

Hugo.
