SNMP Walk for switch information

[burleyman]

I am trying to find the OID's needed to gather the following information. I am finding bits and pieces but not exactly what I need.

Is there a way to get a full SNMP Walk of everything on a switch?

Here is what I am hoping to get.

Host Name

Part Number

Part Description

Serial Number

IP Address

Software version

VLAN

VLAN IP address

VLAN Name

Default Gateway

CDP Neighbor

Interface Errors

TX/RX/Reliability

Thanks,

Mike

I believe you can get all of that information via SNMP.

Are you trying to write a program to pull it in and then munge that data?

It is probably easiest to lab it up and have something like SolarWinds NPM (free trial) discover the switch using SNMP while you capture traffic. Then you will see all of the OIDs that are queried and the values returned.

You can use a tool to walk the MIB tree if you know where to start. for instance. Paessler has a free SNMP Tester than can do that. I did just a quick test on a switch and I see a good bit of it from walking the tree from 1.3.6.1.2.1.

Thank for the help.

Believe it or not after 16 years working on networks I never had to do that much with SNMP alone so I am learning some things so if you could guide me a little bit it would be great.

I am using this...

SnmpWalk.exe -r:10.0.1.1 -c:public -os:.1.3.6.1.2.1 -op:WHAT_DO_I_PUT_HERE >>e:/Full_Walk_1.txt

Which starts at the OID that you listed but what would be the stop OID to get everything on a switch? or can't I do that?

Also I am downloading the SNMP tester and see what that gives me.

Your question: Are you trying to write a program to pull it in and then munge that data?

Answer is yes. Trying to make a custom program that will use the data I gather.

I wish I had gotten into SNMP stuff sooner.
