SNMP monitor CPU utilization

[mgatt010]

I am using snmp to monitor CPU utilization on the following cisco devices, ASA 5545, catalyst 2960 and wireless controller 2504.

Can someone please help me obtain the required mib files of the corresponding devices or oid for monitoring cpu utilization.

They use the same mibs usually  for most devices for cpu , try these in the doc

http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/ip/simple-network-management-protocol-snmp/15215-collect-cpu-util-snmp.html

or try the mib locator

Thank you for you reply Mark, I already tried the oid in the link you provided but I get a reply No such Instance or No such Object. I also tried the mib locator but had no luck in locating the required mib files or oid to monitor CPU usage.

Any further help would be greatly appreciated

hmm maybe have a look at this link , looks like you can email cisco and an auto database will return what mibs are available for your platform

Cisco MIBs Supported By Product

The Cisco MIBS Locator tool provides information on the SNMP capabilities that are contained in most Cisco IOS software images. To access this web site, use the following procedure:

---

Step 1 Go to the Cisco MIBs Locator page:

http://tools.cisco.com/ITDIT/MIBS/MainServlet

Step 2 Select the release, platform, and feature set to display a list of MIBs that are supported on the router.

Step 3 Scroll through the list to view the MIBs supported in a Cisco IOS software release.

Using the MIBs in Images Mail Service

The MIBs in Images (MII) mail service allows you to send an e-mail containing one or more Cisco IOS software images to a software database that is maintained by Cisco. The mail service checks the software database for the listed software images, and if it finds the images you supplied, it returns an e-mail to you with the list of MIBs that are supported in each software image.

To access the MII mail service, use the following procedure:

---

Step 1 Use the show version command to display the filename for the Cisco IOS image your router is running. The line that shows the filename starts with “System image file”. For example, the following sample output shows that the Cisco IOS image filename is “ ubr7200-ik8s-mz.122-15.BC1.bin ”.

Step 2 Send an e-mail to the e-mail address mii@external.cisco.com that includes the image filename by itself in the body of the e-mail text. (Do not include the location of the file, which could be a device name, such as “slot0:”, or a TFTP URL.)

Step 3 After a few minutes, the MIBs in Images Mail service sends back an e-mail listing the MIBs contained in this particular Cisco IOS software release. (For more help on using the MIBs In Images mail service, send a blank e-mail to mii@external.cisco.com with the word “help” in the subject line.)
