Hi,
We've been trying to monitor the used bandwidth of our SGE2000 and SGE2010 switches with Nagios.
We've been experimenting with the various OIDs and we've found the OIDs linked to the different switchports.
Though when we use SNMPWalk (to find the OIDs connected to the port) the names of the ports are all the same.
the output is the following:
.1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.2.1 = STRING: Ethernet Interface
.1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.2.2 = STRING: Ethernet Interface
.1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.2.3 = STRING: Ethernet Interface
.1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.2.4 = STRING: Ethernet Interface
.1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.2.5 = STRING: Ethernet Interface
.1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.2.6 = STRING: Ethernet Interface
.1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.2.7 = STRING: Ethernet Interface
.1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.2.8 = STRING: Ethernet Interface
.1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.2.9 = STRING: Ethernet Interface
.1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.2.10 = STRING: Ethernet Interface
....
Is there a way to change the names of these interface to unique names?
We've already given unique names in the description field through the switch's GUI, but it doesn't make any difference for Nagios.
If there's anyone who has already tries this or has some tips, we'd appreciate it!
Thanks in advance.
