Issue
SNMP monitoring via PRTG
I use a few separate ClearOS installations all as SOHO routers/gateways. I use PRTG to monitor the devices and traffic on the network(s). Two of my three installations are working properly. The third is giving me some grief and I'm not sure why as I believe I have it configured the same as the rest.
I've installed SNMP and started the service. I've changed the /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf file to read
The IP address being that of the PRTG system. That single line is all I have in my other systems that work.
I'm expecting to see numerous sensors including drive space, traffic for each VLAN, CPU load, memory, etc. but all I'm getting back is ping, DNS, SNTP and uptime. With the exception of uptime, I believe that the other values are things that could be obtained without having SNMP enabled.
The one difference between the troublesome site and the others is that in this case the PRTG server is on a separate VLAN. I doubt this is the issue the VLAN is set up as a 'LAN', so the systems should see each other, and I tried directing PRTG to the gateway's address (same ClearOS box) on its own subnet and got the same results.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Bill
