    Squid3 and SNMP

    Hello everyone!

    I didn't find any SNMP templates for Squid (see http://www.squid-cache.org), so I created one. It's attached it to this post, in case someone is interested.

    Some info / quirks about the template:

    - There are no triggers / graphs. My main priority was getting the data. They're simple enough to add anyway - the "hard" work is done now...

    - The cacheMesh provides an example on how to monitor cache peers. Simply replace [IP ADDRESS HERE] with the actual IP address of the cache peer (without the square brackets) and enable it (hint: use clone). You can't use the dynamic index for this.

    - Once in a while, Squid 3 (stable13) calculates incorrect data for the 1 minute medians in cacheProtoMedianSvcStats. 5 and 60 medians seem to work fine.

    In case you need to setup SNMP in Squid, visit http://wiki.squid-cache.org/SquidFaq/SquidSnmp. (Debian distro package has this enabled by default).

    I do believe the Squid 3 OIDs are compatible with Squid 2... but I haven't tested it.

      You should add this to the "Template Gallery" stickied at the top of this forum (http://www.zabbix.com/forum/showthread.php?t=5947

      and you should also add this to the wiki

      http://www.zabbix.com/wiki/doku.php?...trib:templates

      By doing both it just makes it easier for those that are searching for new templates.
