Hello -

I'm using zabbix server v1.6.2 on Solaris 5.10 Generic_120011-14. I'm currently attempting to monitor a cisco catalyst 6509 via SNMP, but I must be doing something wrong. Unfortunately, I'm having some trouble interpreting error messages from the logs.

Zabbix Server: 192.168.255.36
Cisco 6509: 192.168.10.1

The Zabbix server complains with the following:

14334:20090305:115310 In get_value(key:SNMP-InOctets-Bps)
14334:20090305:115310 In get_value_snmp(key:SNMP-InOctets-Bps, oid:.1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.6.9)

Where should I start with troubleshooting the Item error "Timeout while connecting to 192.168.255.36"... Is this an issue related to updating the zabbix db? I can snmpget the OID with no problems. The zabbix server appears to be listening on port 10051.

It's been a while since I've used Zabbix. What am I doing wrong?
