SNMP information

Post by MP »

Hi everbody,

i'm little bit in trouble monitoring a couple of managed networkswitches.
The main Monitorsystem only allows snmp-get . The Switches are not in the same ip-submask then the main monitor system and it is not allowed for security reasons to make a routing to the right subnet.
So i tried to make the hostmonitor the snmp-get retrieves and send it on the right ip-adress / networkcard to the main monitoring system. But unfortunatly there are only snmp-traps could be sent.


Is it possible to make a locale snmp-system that can be set from hostmonitor and in following could be read by the main monitoring system per snmp-get?

i hope my question is understandable, cause my english seems not to be so good.

It depends on what exactly is "main Monitorsystem". If this is HostMonitor, then you may use passive or active Remote Monitoring Agents (RMA) to requests devices in separate networks protected by firewall.

If this is some other software, ask developers of that software. May be they have solution similar to our RMA.

It is an industrial guide-system for energy transmission.

It can only make snpm or opc requests. Ok it can make more but just iec 60870....
So no RMa or something

Its possible but I think you need some special software. IMHO standard Windows SNMP agent does not provide such option :roll:

We do not have such software. As I know there are OPC-SNMP gateways, if you install such software you should be able to access OPC service using SNMP Get test method.
