Watchguard X55e not behaving

[mbeals]

I am attempting to get cacti to monitor a watchguard X55e firewall, which is supposed to support SNMP. I have enabled SNMP according to the documentation, but still continue to get SNMP error when I try to connect. I have done this both from the WAN side, forwarding port 161 to the trusted interface as well as on the trusted LAN side.

Here are the instructions provided by watchguard:

http://www.watchguard.com/support/faqs/ ... t_snmp.htm

The thing that catches my eye in them is that it refers to port 161 being a TCP port, when (as I understand it) cacti looks for it as a UDP port. I attempted to force cacti to run it as TCP by adding 'tcp:' to the front of the hostname, but that only served to crash cacti.

I also read a post that I found by searching that mentioned having to make a custom template, as the mib's used by the watchguard aren't in any current templates, which is causing the SNMP error. The MIB's are listed at the end of that documentation....but I can find very little info on how to take that MIB and put it in a form that cacti likes.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

The trick to this one is to put an IP on the unused optional network. Next disable the snmp/submitt and the reenable it. Took me a few hours on my own but watchguar wants $200 to reup my support on a $600 device.
