SNMP, can`t read OID values

[pgin]

Hi,

I have setup a discovery rule. The check are :
type: SMNPv2 agent, port: 161, community: : public, OID: .1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1.0
type: SMNPv2 agent, port: 161, community: : public, OID: .1.3.6.1.2.1.1.2.0
type: SMNPv2 agent, port: 161, community: : public, OID: .1.3.6.1.2.1.1.3.0
type: SMNPv2 agent, port: 161, community: : public, OID: .1.3.6.1.2.1.1.4.0

Then, I go in Monitoring->Discovery
I only see the detection of
.1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1.0, .1.3.6.1.2.1.1.3.0 and .1.3.6.1.2.1.1.4.0

If, on the command line, I use snmpwalk or snmpget with the same "addresses", i can read the 4 values.

The standard address .1.3.6.1.2.1.1.2.0 contains the OID of the device which I want to use to select the templates,...

Thanks in advance for your answer.

Hello and welcome!

Did you also create an action that takes care of the received values and adds the discovered hosts to monitoring?

discovery rule bug, need workaround

First of all, thanks Ingus for your reply

Configuration->Discovery

Name: test
Discovery by proxy: No Proxy
IP range: 10.7.50.1,10.7.50.3,10.7.50.7
Delay (in sec): 20
Checks
SNMPv2 agent ".1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1.0"
SNMPv2 agent ".1.3.6.1.2.1.1.2.0"
SNMPv2 agent ".1.3.6.1.2.1.1.3.0"
SNMPv2 agent ".1.3.6.1.2.1.1.4.0"
SNMPv2 agent "sysObjectID.0"
Device uniqueness criteria: IP address

It seams that it is a known and old bug : ZBX-4054

What I am looking now, is a workaround. I have several types of devices (routers, firewall, cellular modems (several types)) on my network. I am looking for a way to identify them in order to associate the proper template. Most of them have same kind of parameters but located at different location (MIB, SNMP).
I have found that I can monitor registers that are mapped for a particular model. But, nothing tell me that a future model will not respond to the same address, and, it implies as many request than there is model type which is a problem when cost is based on traffic (cellular).
