snmp MIB on Riverbed Steelhead Device

JuergenF · Post by **JuergenF** » Thu Jul 21, 2011 12:19 am

Hi all,

I have an snmp GET test running for temperature check on my Riverbed Steelhead
1.3.6.1.4.1.17163.1.1.2.9.0
That's fine.

Now I want to check another MIB. The "Half-closed connections"
1.3.6.1.4.1.14823.1.1.5.2.4
http://www.oidview.com/mibs/14823/STEELHEAD-MIB.html

When I try "Get value" in HostMonitor, I get:
SNMP error: No such name

I tried to add .0 as well, same problem.

I tried MIB Browser, but I'm not really familiar with that.

Any help is appreciated.

Sorry for giving the answer myself.

I've got support in the Riverbed Forum

.1.3.6.1.4.1.17163.1.1.5.2.4.0

So a "." in the beginning and ".0" in the end.

So my problem is solved, but
can anyone explain why this is different to the temperature MIB ?

HostMonitor removes leading '.' anyway so it makes no difference.
I assume you just used wrong OID 1st time

Just to clarify (even I have missed this

)

In the first case I tried
1.3.6.1.4.1.14823.1.1.5.2.4

Then I was pointed to
.1.3.6.1.4.1.17163.1.1.5.2.4.0

So the change from 14823 to 17163
and adding the ".0" did the trick.

You are right Alex, the leading "." is removed by HM

Thanks
