Code:

UDP: [192.168.2.41]:44387->[192.168.2.51]

DISMAN-EVENT-MIB::sysUpTimeInstance 0:0:00:00.08

SNMPv2-MIB::snmpTrapOID.0 SNMPv2-MIB::coldStart

SNMPv2-MIB::snmpTrapEnterprise.0 NET-SNMP-MIB::netSnmpAgentOIDs.10

# SECTION: Monitor Various Aspects of the Running Host

#

#  The following check up on various aspects of a host.



# proc: Check for processes that should be running.

#    proc NAME [MAX=0] [MIN=0]

#

#    NAME:  the name of the process to check for.  It must match

#            exactly (ie, http will not find httpd processes).

#    MAX:  the maximum number allowed to be running.  Defaults to 0.

#    MIN:  the minimum number to be running.  Defaults to 0.

#

#  The results are reported in the prTable section of the UCD-SNMP-MIB tree

#  Special Case:  When the min and max numbers are both 0, it assumes

#  you want a max of infinity and a min of 1.



proc  httpd 1 1



# disk: Check for disk space usage of a partition.

#  The agent can check the amount of available disk space, and make

#  sure it is above a set limit.

#

#    disk PATH [MIN=100000]

#

#    PATH:  mount path to the disk in question.

#    MIN:  Disks with space below this value will have the Mib's errorFlag set.

#          Can be a raw integer value (units of kB) or a percentage followed by the %

#          symbol.  Default value = 100000.

#

#  The results are reported in the dskTable section of the UCD-SNMP-MIB tree



disk  / 10%



# load: Check for unreasonable load average values.

#  Watch the load average levels on the machine.

#

#    load [1MAX=12.0] [5MAX=12.0] [15MAX=12.0]

#

#    1MAX:  If the 1 minute load average is above this limit at query

#            time, the errorFlag will be set.

#    5MAX:  Similar, but for 5 min average.

#    15MAX:  Similar, but for 15 min average.

#

#  The results are reported in the laTable section of the UCD-SNMP-MIB tree

# SECTION: System Information Setup

#

#  This section defines some of the information reported in

#  the "system" mib group in the mibII tree.



# syslocation: The [typically physical] location of the system.

#  Note that setting this value here means that when trying to

#  perform an snmp SET operation to the sysLocation.0 variable will make

#  the agent return the "notWritable" error code.  IE, including

#  this token in the snmpd.conf file will disable write access to

#  the variable.

#  arguments:  location_string



syslocation  north



# syscontact: The contact information for the administrator

#  Note that setting this value here means that when trying to

#  perform an snmp SET operation to the sysContact.0 variable will make

#  the agent return the "notWritable" error code.  IE, including

#  this token in the snmpd.conf file will disable write access to

#  the variable.

#  arguments:  contact_string



syscontact  david@the-ward-network.com



# sysservices: The proper value for the sysServices object.

#  arguments:  sysservices_number



sysservices 12

sysservices 0*1 + 0*2 + 1*4 + 1*8 + 1*64

# SECTION: Agent Operating Mode

#

#  This section defines how the agent will operate when it

#  is running.



# master: Should the agent operate as a master agent or not.

#  Currently, the only supported master agent type for this token

#  is "agentx".

#

#  arguments: (on|yes|agentx|all|off|no)
