discovery -snmp wont work

[Colttt]

Hello,

i've Debian Squeeze + Zabbix v1.8.2.

I would like to discover my network.. ICMP Ping and Zabbix-Agent(standard) would be work. but my new discover-rule won´t be work.. is an Ping+SNMPv1/v2, but only the PINg would be work.. has anybody an idea?



snmp1/2 port:161 communityublic

I think you need to supply an OID to look at for this to work...

[Colttt]

realy?! we have different snmp-devices.. like printer, scanner, switches, temp-sensors, etc.

i was thinking that zabbix scan automaticly the network and snmp-devices

[qix]

It can, but you will need to differentiate between the various devices to be able to link the correct templates/device groups auto-magically.

Fetch an OID that returns some device information so you can use it in your actions to add hosts to the system with the correct templates.

i'll be happy when zabbix find some devices by snmp. i wouldn´t link to templates or somthing like that..

only find snmp-devices nothing more.. but it doesn´t work

[Colttt]

nobody an idea?

In that case just use the System uptime OID.

[Colttt]

and how is the OID??

i thought zabbix scan ala

snmpwalk IP -v1 -c public 
snmpwalk IP -v2c -c public

and then will show in discovery.. after this i can add the snmp-device to zabbix

Doing a SNMP walk on every ip adres in your network would be a bad idea.
Zabbix will happily manage your hosts if you supply the correct rules.

If you don't like it, don't use Discovery or supply a generic OID to test for SNMP capabilities.
