snmpget - communicates with a network entity using SNMP GET Requests. |
| |
|
13 |
!!SYNOPSIS |
| |
|
14 |
|
| |
|
15 |
|
| |

snmpget [[-Cf] [[ common arguments ] objectID |

!!DESCRIPTION |
| |
|
19 |
|
| |
|
20 |
|
| |
|
21 |
Snmpget is an SNMP application that uses the GET Request to |
| |
|
22 |
query for information on a network entity. One or more fully |
| |
|
23 |
qualified object identifiers may be given as arguments on |
| |
|
24 |
the command line. Each variable name is given in the format |
| |
|
25 |
specified in variables(5). |
| |
|
26 |
|
| |
|
27 |
|
| |
|
28 |
For example |
| |
|
29 |
|
| |
|
30 |
|
| |
|
31 |
''snmpget zeus public system.sysDescr.0'' |
| |
|
32 |
|
| |
|
33 |
|
| |
|
34 |
will retrieve the variable system.sysDescr.0: |
| |
|
35 |
|
| |
|
36 |
|
| |
|
37 |
''system.sysDescr.0 ='' |
| |
|
38 |
'' |
| |
|
39 |
|
| |
|
40 |
|
| |
|
41 |
If the network entity has an error processing the request |
| |
|
42 |
packet, an error packet will be returned and a message will |
| |
|
43 |
be shown, helping to pinpoint in what way the request was |
| |
|
44 |
malformed. If there were other variables in the request, the |
| |
|
45 |
request will be resent without the bad |
| |
|
46 |
variable. |
| |
|
47 |
!!OPTIONS |

|
48 |
|
| |
|

|
| |
|
50 |
-Cf |
| |
|
51 |
|
| |
|
52 |
|
| |
|
53 |
If -Cf is not specified, some applications (E.G., snmpget, |
| |
|
54 |
snmpgetnext, snmpwalk, etc) will try to fix errors returned |
| |
|
55 |
by the agent that you were talking to and resend the |
| |
|
56 |
request. The only time this is really useful is if you |
| |
|
57 |
specified a OID that didn't exist in your request and you're |
| |
|
58 |
using SNMPv1 which requires |
| |
|
59 |
|
| |
|
60 |
|
| |
|
61 |
snmpget -v 1 -Cf localhost public system.sysUpTime system.sysContact.0 |
| |
|
62 |
Error in packet |
| |
|
63 |
Reason: (noSuchName) There is no such variable name in this MIB. |
| |
|
64 |
This name doesn't exist: system.sysUpTime |
| |
|
65 |
snmpget -v 1 localhost public system.sysUpTime system.sysContact.0 |
| |
|
66 |
Error in packet |
| |
|
67 |
Reason: (noSuchName) There is no such variable name in this MIB. |
| |
|
68 |
This name doesn't exist: system.sysUpTime |
| |
|
69 |
system.sysContact.0 = root@localhost |
| |
|
70 |
With the -Cf specified the application will not try to fix the PDU for you. |
