!!DESCRIPTION |

Snmpstatus is an SNMP application that retrieves several |
| |
|
20 |
important statistics from a network entity. |
| |
|
21 |
|
| |
|
22 |
|
| |
|
23 |
The ''host'' specification may be either a host name or |
| |
|
24 |
an internet address specified in |
| |
|
25 |
'' |
| |
|
26 |
|
| |
|
27 |
|
| |
|
28 |
The ''community'' specifies the community name for the |
| |
|
29 |
transaction with the remote system. If this argument is not |
| |
|
30 |
given, the community name will default to ''public |
| |
|
31 |
.'' |
| |
|
32 |
|
| |
|
33 |
|
| |
|
34 |
The information returned is: |
| |
|
35 |
|
| |
|
36 |
|
| |
|
37 |
The IP address of the entity. |
| |
|
38 |
A textual description of the entity ''(sysDescr.0)'' |
| |
|
39 |
The uptime of the entity ''(sysUpTime.0)'' |
| |
|
40 |
The sum of received packets on all interfaces |
| |
|
41 |
''(ifInUCastPkts.* + ifInNUCastPkts.*)'' |
| |
|
42 |
The sum of transmitted packets on all interfaces |
| |
|
43 |
''(ifOutUCastPkts.* + ifOutNUCastPkts.*)'' |
| |
|
44 |
The number of IP input packets ''(ipInReceives.0)'' |
| |
|
45 |
The number of IP output packets |
| |
|
46 |
''(ipOutRequests.0)'' |
| |
|
47 |
|
| |
|
48 |
|
| |
|
49 |
For example |
| |
|
50 |
|
| |
|
51 |
|
| |
|
52 |
''snmpstatus netdev-kbox.cc.cmu.edu public'' |
| |
|
53 |
|
| |
|
54 |
|
| |
|
55 |
will produce output similar to the following: |
| |
|
56 |
|
| |
|
57 |
|
| |
|
58 |
''[[128.2.56.220]= |
| |
|
59 |
'' |
| |
|
60 |
IF recv/trans packets 262874/39867 | IP recv/trans packets |
| |
|
61 |
31603/15805'' |
| |
|
62 |
|
| |
|
63 |
|
| |
|
64 |
Snmpstatus also checks the operational status of all |
| |
|
65 |
interfaces (ifOperStatus.*), and if it finds any that are |
| |
|
66 |
not running, it will report in a manner similar to |
| |
|
67 |
this: |
| |
|
68 |
|
| |
|
69 |
|
| |
|
70 |
''2 interfaces are down!'' The ''host'' specification |
| |
|
71 |
may be either a host name or an internet address specified |
| |
|
72 |
in '' |
| |
|
73 |
|
| |
|
74 |
|
| |
|
75 |
The ''community'' specifies the community name for the |
| |
|
76 |
transaction with the remote system. If none is given, the |
| |
|
77 |
community name defaults to ''public .'' |
| |
|
78 |
|
| |
|
79 |
|
| |
|
80 |
If the network entity has an error processing the request |
| |
|
81 |
packet, an error packet will be returned and a message will |
| |
|
82 |
be shown, helping to pinpoint in what way the request was |
| |
|
83 |
malformed. Snmpstatus will attempt to reform it's request to |
| |
|
84 |
eliminate the malformed variable, but this variable will |
| |
|
85 |
then be missing from the displayed data. |
