I think it may be a version mismatch. It seems the check_snmp plugin only supports SNMP v1 and v3, but not v2c. I cannot snmpget my device with v1 or v3.

Try doing a '-h' on check_snmp to see all the options. - Josh ________________________________________ From: nagios-users-bounces@lists.sourceforge.net on behalf of Dylan Bouterse Sent: Mon 10/22/2007 10:24 AM To: nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [Nagios-users] check_snmp syntax issue I am trying to get check_snmp working to alert when my GPS sync stops working on one of my devices. I can execute the snmpget command to get the string but I'm having no luck in configuring a check_snmp syntax to return values. [root@ns1 cfg]# snmpget -v 2c -c community 1.1.20.3 1.3.6.1.4.1.161.19.3.4.4.13.0 SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.161.19.3.4.4.13.0 = STRING: "SYNC OK" [root@ns1 cfg]# snmpget -v 2c -c community 1.1.21.3 1.3.6.1.4.1.161.19.3.4.4.13.0 SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.161.19.3.4.4.13.0 = STRING: "No SYNC" How would I write the check_snmp command to show OK when "SYNC OK" and alert critical when the "No SYNC" value is returned?
