Commands
Here are commands example to use my scripts
with nagios.
It's only the basic things you can do, check the help of every
script if you need more advanced features especially if you need
performance outputs.
The command definitions are complete, but not the service definitions
: you must add host name, contact groups, etc....
All these commands use $USER<n>$ macros
to put snmp login. The reason for this is that the ressources.cfg
file cannot be read by the CGI, preventing your "passwords"
to be seen with the config.
You must set the $USER7$ or $USER8$ to make these examples work.
The $USER<n>$ macro are defined in the resources.cfg file
SNMP login with $USER<n>$

Checks you can make by
host type
SNMP
login
For more information, you can have a look at information
on snmp login
If you are using snmp v1 :
$USER7$=-C <community>
If you are using snmp v2c :
$USER7$=-C <community> -2
or you can use $USER9$ if you need both v1 and v2c.
Examples of snmp v3 login :
AuthNoPriv (md5) :
$USER8$=-l <login> -x <pass>
AuthPriv (md5,aes) :
$USER8$=-l <login> -x <pass> -X <pass>
-L md5,aes
About
regular expressions
With all these scripts, when you select an
interface, a service or process name etc... you use by default regular
expresions :
Note : you can disable this by using "-r"
Examples : Don't forget it is perl regular
expressions.
