SNMP Get
The probe SNMP Get performs SNMP Get request of the specified host by its OID (the object identifier in the SNMP Management Information Base - MIB).
| SNMP GETNEXT and SNMP WALK functionality requires SAYMON Agent 5.5.1. |
This sensor can also perform SNMP GETNEXT and SNMP WALK. Selected operation depends on the OID format:
-
If OID doesn’t end on a dot – sensor performs SNMP GET;
-
If OID does end on a single dot – sensor performs SNMP WALK;
-
If OID ends on two dots – sensor performs SNMP GETNEXT.
| If you define multiple OIDs in the SNMP GETNEXT format, sensor will only work with the first one. If you define multiple OIDs of types SNMP GET and SNMP WALK, sensor will send requests to all specified OIDs. |
