Hi,you should run "devmon --readbbhosts -vvv --debug" and examine the output, if it was able to contact the switch and figure out the template for it from the sysdesc string.

Yep I noticed that: but I thought it wasn't working since I didn't see anything in the log file...LOL guess I assumed something would go wrong? LOL Anyways I noticed the hosts.db file was being udpated. Now the next step is to figure out how I go about doing the tests: bandwidth, uptime, etc for the asa5500 On 19/03/09 10:21 AM, "Husemann, Harald" <Harald.Husemann (at) materna.de> wrote:Hi William, all you have to do is including your switches in the bb-hosts, with a line like this: <ip> <host> # DEVMON Then, run "devmon --readbbhosts", and the devmon process will start polling the switch.

I saw that there is a template for cisco ASA so I'm hoping its for that machine. I'm new at this, and just trying to figure out what "switches" I have to put into the bb-hosts files... (still haven't figured out what area to change: bb-hosts or the client config files)...

If that is a requirement for you, then I would recommend using mrtg with appropriate templates, and bbmrtg.pl to report the values to xymon. I use that technique to monitor 135 UPS, 94 temperature/humidity probes, 19 firewalls, and close to 300 Cisco routers/switches.
