zabbix items and corresponding OID

[shadock]

Hello
I'm inexperienced user of Zabbix so i'm sorry if my question is trivial for most of you.
I have to check strange values of some items collected in zabbix. Values are taken from SNMP and it is somehow configured. I need to check which OID is responsible for specific item.

Where can I find this?

Kind regards

Hi Shadock,

I´m a beginner in SNMP/Zabbix but I think I can help you a little bit on your way to enlightenment in this question. This post assumes that you use linux system and have SSH access.

You can get the OID of an named/alphanumerical Key (example: IF-MIB::ifInErrors, in Cisco interface template) by using snmptranslate:

snmptranslate -m +<MIB_NAME> -IR -On <OBJECT>

MIB name is the name of the MIB file you´re "using" without file extention (.txt), i.e. the one that is located in /usr/share/snmp/mibs/ if you´re using CentOS 6 like me.

OBJECT is the name of the object, ifInErrors in my example above.
MIB file in sample is /usr/share/snmp/mibs/IF-MIB.txt

So the cmd to use for getting numerical OID is:
snmptranslate -m +IF-MIB -IR -On ifInErrors

command and result on my server:
$ snmptranslate -m +IF-MIB -IR -On ifInErrors
.1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.14

Hope this is of help.
