SNMP Cisco Routers and Switches |
| |
| Most Cisco devices feature an SNMP agent that can provide powerful and vital hardware status information. Use MonitorMagic to monitor for performance and stability loss on your Cisco network components. See installation notes, policy features and download link below. |

 Cisco SNMP - How To Install?
|
| To install a policy, download a policy by clicking on the version link in the policy table below. Make sure the file is saved to a .mpf file on your local hard disk. Start the MonitorMagic client and select the "Local Monitor Policies" branch in the "Policies" tab of the network browse window. Navigate to the "Policy" menu and click "Import policies...". Select the downloaded policy file and click OK. The new policy is now available in the MonitorMagic client policy tree. |

Cisco SNMP - How To Configure? |
| 1. Specify the IP-address and community of your Cisco device |
| Each SNMP monitor needs a valid IP address, community specification and Object Identifier. Our policies already contain the Object Identifiers and default community <public>. To configure the policy, modify each SNMP monitor and point the IP-address to the Cisco device. You can test each monitor by using the "Get" button when editing the SNMP get monitor. |
| 2. Modify SNMP OID numbers for each port |
| Several monitors related to an interface, such as the "Cisco Interface State", point to a specific OID. By default, this monitor ends with 8.1, meaning it only monitors port/interface number 1. For additional ports/interfaces, add new SNMP hosts to this monitor which correspond with the number of the port/interface. |
| |
Cisco SNMP - How To Run? |
| Within the MonitorMagic client, connect to a running MonitorMagic service that has a pingable network connection to the Cisco device. Drag-and-drop the SNMP Cisco policy onto the open MonitorMagic service window to start monitoring. |
