oid_index_parse in SNMP query not working

Post by mait »

hey,

has anyone successfully used the oid_index_parse -feature in SNMP query?

it works fine, until i add another 'direction -> input' -field to the query which returns "all" instances (not only the one that the oid_index_parse passes)


at the same time, i do need these additional input field to show other data ...

as in the following:

+ Executing SNMP walk for list of indexes @ '.1.3.6.1.2.1.10.7.2.1.1'
+ Located input field 'myIndex' [walk]
+ Executing SNMP walk for data @ '.1.3.6.1.2.1.10.7.2.1.1'
+ Found item [myIndex='1'] index: 1 [from value]
+ Located input field 'ifDescr' [walk]
+ Executing SNMP walk for data @ '.1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.2'
+ Found item [ifDescr='ae0'] index: 1 [from value]
+ Found item [ifDescr='lo0'] index: 2 [from value]
+ Found item [ifDescr='ar0'] index: 3 [from value]
+ Found item [ifDescr='ar1'] index: 4 [from value]

You need to post the entire Walk. Then also post the xml file if you want an answer.

hey,

here's the query:

+ Running data query [14].
+ Found type = '3' [snmp query].
+ Found data query XML file at '/var/www/html/cacti/resource/snmp_queries/data_query_rfc1643.xml'
+ XML file parsed ok.
+ Executing SNMP walk for list of indexes @ '.1.3.6.1.2.1.10.7.2.1.1'
+ Located input field 'dot3StatsIndex' [walk]
+ Executing SNMP walk for data @ '.1.3.6.1.2.1.10.7.2.1.1'
+ Found item [dot3StatsIndex='1'] index: 1 [from value]
+ Located input field 'ifDescr' [walk]
+ Executing SNMP walk for data @ '.1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.2'
+ Found item [ifDescr='dp0'] index: 1 [from value]
+ Found item [ifDescr='lo0'] index: 2 [from value]
+ Found item [ifDescr='wlc0'] index: 3 [from value]
+ Found data query XML file at '/var/www/html/cacti/resource/snmp_queries/data_query_rfc1643.xml'
+ Found data query XML file at '/var/www/html/cacti/resource/snmp_queries/data_query_rfc1643.xml'
+ Found data query XML file at '/var/www/html/cacti/resource/snmp_queries/data_query_rfc1643.xml'
+ Found data query XML file at '/var/www/html/cacti/resource/snmp_queries/data_query_rfc1643.xml'


and the xml of the query is attached.

ps: i guess i should redefine the problem:
oid_index_parse may not be the source of the problem, rather the fact that altghough the walk of oid_index -OID results in 1 entry, adding additional input -fields presents me ALL the indexes
(one would think that specifying the oid_index would restrict the indexes to this OID, no matter what other input field are alson present)

Please run the following command from the command line and post your results:

Code: Select all

snmpwalk -c <yourcommunity> -v <yourversion> <yourhost> <startingoid>
The starting OID will be the base for the query in question.

hi,

if by 'starting oid' you mean the 'oid_index', then here's the output:

[root@localhost root]# snmpwalk -c public -v 1 1.1.1.1 .1.3.6.1.2.1.10.7.2.1.1
SNMPv2-SMI::transmission.7.2.1.1.1 = INTEGER: 1
[root@localhost root]#

Please backup enough digits to display the entire tree.

hey,

if i back up from that OID, i end up in the 'root' OID.
the only OID that shows me the entire index is the standard ifIndex.

Hmm. Please walk the entire tree and e-mail to me. Although, '.1.3.6.1.2.1.10.7.2.1' Should have gotten it. I will not take a look at the XML file as well. Thanks!
