Hi Rainer, Thank you very much for your reply. I have the CD's here somewhere for Insight Manager and will have a look to find the MIBS for the particular hardware. (never thought to look on the CD's). Downloading an SNMP browser from the internet should be easy enough. When I manage to find some free time I'll investigate further and let the list know how I got on. Once again, thanks for your input.

I posted it to the mailing-list and I uploaded the plugins to sourceforge. That was in January 2005. They are in the contrib directory in the nagiosplugins source distribution. You should get hold of an InsightManager CD and copy the MIBs to the directory where your SNMP-client stores MIBs. Then you can use a SNMP-browser (like mbrowse on Unix-systems) to access the MIBs and get an idea of what you should be looking at. Please note that these plugins are very crude - there's probably a more elegant way to access all these MIBs and automate some of the hardcoded stuff in there... cheers, Rainer </tt> ******************** IMPORTANT NOTICE This email (including any attachments) is meant only for the intended recipient.
