Re: [hobbit] Monitoring Cisco routers



What about interface traffic?

I simply use bb-xsnmp.pl to monitor cisco equipment.
It works well with hobbit, giving nice graphs for cpu, RAM, and temp
Also check fans and power

Will gather info from netapp servers and APC UPS systems among other
things...

There is a devmon Web page somewhere that tells you what is needed.
Google "devmon" and see what you find.

Devmon runs as a daemon, but there is a devmon command you can run every
so often via hobbitlaunch to get devmon to re-read bb-hosts.

There are some "features" about devmon that may make it less desirable
in certain environments:

A) Nothing is graphed -- traffic and errors numbers live in tables.

B) There is no convenient way to control which interfaces in a device
are monitored.  There are some inconvenient ways, however.

C) Devmon has a pretty big default footprint.  You can tune it a little
bit, but you need to know what you are doing.

OK, a couple of questions...

Is SNMP-Session still required?  I have Perl_SNMP installed.

Can someone please post (or send) their hobbitlaunch settings to run
devmon?

Thanks.

Subject: [hobbit] Monitoring Cisco routers

I'm looking to hear from the group about monitoring Cisco routers. I
see on deadcat that there are a number of external packages to do
this,
which is the best?  Ideally we want to monitor traffic, in addition
to the standard ping test, CPU and memory would be a bonus.

We are currently using devmon(CPU, memory, if_stats...) and MRTG
(bandwidth) for doing that. Before that we had the tool "routermon"
inplace...
