Hi all,
We use 4.0.14 on server and proxies. The network discovery is made by a proxy in active mode. I discovered the following behaviour and would like to know if anyone can confirm this:
I had one network discovery job with several checks for the same oid "SNMPv2-MIB::sysObjectID.0". Because we discover different hardware devices, I had snmpv2 checks for this oid and two snmpv3 checks for this oid. The snmpv3 checks where almost identical, same oid, both authpriv, same "Security name", same Credentials, except "Privacy protocol". It was DES on the first check (some devices only support DES) and AES on the second. The snmpv3-DES check worked, but the snmpv3-AES check always failed with "NETWORK_ERROR" "Timeout while connecting to...". Thus I checked network connection (worked) and snmp credentials (where correct). I checked again, and again, restarted server, restarted proxy, but I never got it working...
Till I split up both snmpv3 checks in two different network discoveries. Then they worked! The snmpv3-DES check discovered all the DES-devices and the snmpv3-AES check discovered all the AES-devices and both returned the value of "SNMPv2-MIB::sysObjectID.0"
If I put them again together in one network discovery, only the snmpv3-DES check works.
The discovery options where:
Can anyone confirm this?
Thanks!
