Monitoring a ProCurve 2824 via SNMP

[Rajinikanth_1]

did you tried to walk via a mib browser
software

if u use the snmpwalk CLI u must have the mibs in ur NET-SNMP folder where it looks for MIBs source file.

I don't know where you are getting that OID information from, but even if you tried walking that MIB from a TelNet session on the switch itself, it would fail.

HP ProCurve Switch 2848# walkmib 1.3.6.1.4.11
No such variable: 1.3.6.1.4.11.
HP ProCurve Switch 2848#

When you walk the MIB in that way, since it is at the switch, there is no need for any MIBs to be loaded or compiled.

I have to assume that you typod on that OID. Even compensating for it and entering the correct OID and working backwards, returns no values.


HP ProCurve Switch 2848# walkmib
Incomplete input: walkmib
HP ProCurve Switch 2848# walkmib 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.3.7.8.3.2
No such variable: 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.3.7.8.3.2.
HP ProCurve Switch 2848# walkmib 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.3.7.8.3
No such variable: 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.3.7.8.3.
HP ProCurve Switch 2848# walkmib 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.3.7.8
No such variable: 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.3.7.8.
HP ProCurve Switch 2848# walkmib 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.3.7
No such variable: 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.3.7.
HP ProCurve Switch 2848# walkmib 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.3
No such variable: 1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.3.
HP ProCurve Switch 2848#

What I said already "BTW, I just did a quick walk through my 2848 and did not see any values in the OIDs you are looking for so I suspect that HP may not report those values. Maybe if you are lucky, someone will prove me wrong." still stands.

ok, I unterstand you but there a some mibs from HP with this OIDs (fan, temperature and like this) this is strange......

I use the MIB browser from iReasoning (www.ireasoning.com) and mbrowse on my linux box.

I don't like to be the bearer of bad news, but I believe those OIDs are just not supported on the 28xx. If they were, walking the MIB at the switch would have revealed values. Like I said, no MIB files are involved when walking at the switch's console.

The MIBs from HP are general purpose for several models and just because they define certain OIDs, does not mean that every model of HP switch will support every OID.

Sorry
